H4 is an independent American film directed by Paul Quinn; actor Harry Lennix produced the film and stars in the title role. It had its world premiere in competition at the 49th Chicago International Film Festival in 2013. In November 2014, the film was shown at the Indie Memphis Film Festival.

Synopsis

The film is an adaptation that combines William Shakespeare's plays Henry IV, Part 1 and Henry IV, Part 2 and sets them in contemporary Los Angeles. The screenplay was adapted by Dr. Ayanna Thompson, Professor of English at Arizona State University, retaining Shakespeare's original language. According to Lennix, the film is told "from the perspective of black people, acted primarily by black people, and it’s from the black point of view"; he nevertheless describes Shakespeare's themes, and the film's, as "universal". Thompson describes the script as being "about the politics and political manoeuvring within the African-American community".
