Tamra Simmons of LA Productions, Jerry Pointer, Melvin Houston, and Trayvon “Tray” Williams of The Pioneers Collective, LLC are set to develop a new fast pace action crime drama entitled “Blind Currency”. This project was directed by Trayvon “Tray” Williams from a script co-written by Williams and Jesse S. Martin. Three brothers plot to collect an 18-year-old debt on behalf of their infamous father OG Eddy but the heir to the throne, Lucky, might be a problem as he finds love in the wrong place.

Blind Currency will be the first project that the duo (Simmons & Williams) will produce together through both of their signature production companies (LA Productions & The Pioneers Collective, LLC).

“Tamra and I have been working really hard at creating dynamic black content together behind the scenes. We can’t wait for us to bring this new film to life. It’s one of so many we have on the way. This is just the beginning!,” said super filmmaker, Trayvon “Tray” Williams
