Trey Knowles - I Am Running

In Trey Knowles' “I Am Running,” this short comedy tells a fictional story about Trey being chased by the world for speaking out against sin. Businesses—and even Walt Disney—join the pursuit, determined to silence him. Trey runs so far that he ends up in a dangerous neighborhood known as 18th Street. As the chase continues, strange and funny moments unfold. Trey encounters the Grim Reaper, then runs into a house where an elderly Latina woman is praying to the Virgin Mary. She asks Trey if Mary can help him, but Trey responds, “No, I need Jesus.” When he runs into the next room, he is shocked to see bones everywhere. Everywhere Trey goes, he is surrounded by death, reinforcing the deeper message behind the comedy.
