This was shot on video (video tape, not to be confused with VHS tape). Trading late-1600s France for wartime Harlem, New York, a small African-American girl dreams of attending the Sugar Hill Ball and if you know the story of Cinderella, you pretty much know the story of this film; evil stepmother, evil step-sisters, fairy godmother (fairy godfather in this case), missing shoe, yadda yadda yadda. Unlike in Cinderella, Cindy's father is present and instead of a Prince, we have a U.S. Navy Captain! Amusingly, this film was directed by William A. Graham and also features a Graham automobile!  Three-star limo that serves as the equivalent to Cinderella's carriage. Looks to be an early-'40s Packard but it's too badly visible to tell. Will list if it can be identified! ![[Image: 2025-03-2519.jpg]](http://pics.imcdb.org/17801/25/2025-03-2519.jpg) ![[Image: 2025-03-2520.jpg]](http://pics.imcdb.org/17801/25/2025-03-2520.jpg) ![[Image: 2025-03-2526.jpg]](http://pics.imcdb.org/17801/25/2025-03-2526.jpg) Set in 1943.
