On this week's episode of Once Upon A Film Industry we have award winning actor Bambadjan Bamba. You've seen him on The Good Place, Black Panther, I Think I Love My Wife and more. He's also the leading immigration activist as he came out as undocumented in 2017 to great applause and scrutiny. He's spoken on CNN, MSNBC about his story in hopes of empowering other undocumented individuals and he has had major success in doing so.

We get into the depths of his incredible story, coming from the Ivory Coast and immigrating to the Bronx. Bambadjan is truly an inspiration and his future is even brighter.
