As we head into the fall, there are still plenty of 2024 new movies slated for release that we're anticipating, including Exhibiting Forgiveness.
The dramatic venture sees a painter attempt to thrive in his career while balancing a complicated family dynamic thanks to his estranged father. Although the father/son duo have quite the complex journey to navigate toward healing, they thankfully have a matriarch who is determined to see forgiveness permeate between the two men.
Here's everything we know about Exhibiting Forgiveness.

Exhibiting Forgiveness plot
Here is the official synopsis of the movie:
"Tarrell is an admired American painter who lives with his wife, singer Aisha, and their young son, Jermaine. Tarrell's artwork excavates beauty from the anguish of his youth, keeping past wounds at bay. His path to success is derailed by an unexpected visit from his estranged father, La'Ron, a conscience-stricken man desperate to reconcile.
"Tarrell’s mother, Joyce, a pious woman with a profound and joyful spirituality, hopes that Tarrell can open his heart to forgiveness, giving them all another chance at being a family. Tarrell and La'Ron learn that forgetting might be a greater challenge than forgiving in this raw and deeply moving film."
