2026 Macon Film Festival

SYNOPSIS: Wild Man. Animal Abuser. Squatter. Crazy. Outlaw. Troublemaker. These are the many labels hurled at Brandon Fulton to describe his lifestyle and ranching entrepreneurship. Going with his moniker “Brannu”, Fulton has been the recognizable local horseman in the southwestern part of Fulton County, Georgia. Since his arrival on the scene training and tending to horses and building up his ranch-style property, he has been the target of local government for a decade. City and county officials have cited him, arrested him, and imposed on him their will for the 27-acre land that he owns. In this adventure story the legal bounds of what land, freedom, and property mean in an agriculture state will be portrayed. Economic and sociopolitical forces of gentrification, eminent domain and urbanization will be addressed. Cameras will capture the nuance of Brannu’s daily life and his routine in fighting for his version of the American Dream. This is a coming-of-age story that shines light on the power of dreams where a Black man realizes his full potential in the crux of unchartered territory in 21st century America.
