The currently untitled movie is inspired by West’s music and will create what is described as a "multi-perspective portrait of the U.S." as seen through the eyes of West, the film’s executive producer, and several filmmakers. An estimated 10-12 directors and six writers will create short stories that that will be linked to a central plot while new and old music from West will also be featured throughout the movie.

"This project will synthesize Kanye’s vision with a fantastic group of filmmakers and create what will be a one-of-a-kind film experience," Richard Brown, one of the movie’s producers, told reporters. Director George C. Wolfe (Lackawanna Blues) will oversee the movie which will be released via New Line Cinema and Anonymous Content.
