HimerosTV – Agape – Shaya Odin and Trevor James

Agape is a greek word for a specific type of universal, empathic love.

This video is inspired by a portrait series that Shaya created for HimerosTV.

In Shaya’s portrait series, he features black men with halos – in contrast to the many images of white guys in halos that fill our churches. Through his art, Shaya shares a message about the sacredness of black men. And this is a film interpretation of that same message – including a closing shot with lens flares that approximate halos. Shaya and Trevor have connected, sensual sex that is in stark contrast to the typical depiction of black men in porn.
