"The Wrong One" tells a story of Lisa Ren, a troubled college student, who has been tasked with producing a documentary for her journalism final on a tragic local murder that took place years ago. She partners with the magnetic Tim Bishop to uncover the mysterious death of young Ronet Graham. While unraveling the sordid details of Ronet's untimely death, Lisa is confronted with her ever deepening guilt over the death of her own beloved twin sister.

The film also stars Duke Williams a rising New York City based actor, who has been in numerous feature and short films. He is also a growing force in the New York theater scene. Duke holds a Bachelor's in Economics & Finance with a minor in theater, and trains with acting coach Wendy McKenzie.

"The Wrong One" is helmed by emerging Hollywood talent, Yaa Boaa Aning who wrote and directed award winning shorts, "The Prince of Venice," "Fanta Face," as well as "Bleeding Sunshine," all of which enjoyed significant international exposure over the course of their respective releases.

Her feature script for "Bleeding Sunshine" was a top 3 finalist at the Urban World Screenwriting Competition and a semi-finalist in the Sundance Screenwriting competition the same year. She is a proud alum of the prestigious Film Independent "Project Involve" Fellowship Program, class of 2014.
