Yesterday nominations for the 2025 Film Independent Spirit Awards were announced and one of our favorites, the BET+ critically acclaimed mystery series “Diarra From Detroit” earned two nominations.
“Diarra From Detroit” earned a nomination for “Best New Scripted Series” and Diarra Kilpatrick is also nominated for “Best Breakthrough Performance in a New Scripted Series.”
“Diarra From Detroit” follows a divorcing schoolteacher who refuses to believe she’s been ghosted by her rebound Tinder date.
Her search for the missing man pulls her into a decades-old mystery involving the Detroit underworld. As the case unfolds, her co-workers, friends, and lovers become unlikely allies as she falls down a dangerous rabbit hole.
The series is created by and stars Diarra Kilpatrick, alongside Morris Chestnut, Phylicia Rashad, DomiNque Perry, Claudia Logan, Bryan Terrell Clark, Shannon Wallace, and Jon Chaffin.
The series received rave reviews after premiering at last year’s Tribeca Film Festival.
