Dirty Laundry is a 2007 drama film produced by 20th Century Film and distributed by Code Black. Written, directed, and starred Maurice Jamal. After ten years, Sheldon returns from New York City to Paris, Georgia. His mother Evelyn, a laundress who is stubborn, ornery, opinionated, mean-spirited, insulting, and inflexible, has sent a ten-year-old boy who says he's Sheldon's son up to see Sheldon. Sheldon comes home to straighten things out. Old arguments flare up between himself, his mother, his sister, & his brother. Sheldon didn't believe that the 10-year-old boy was his son and didn't want no part of fatherhood or family. Then, a white man from New York shows up at Evelyn's door, bringing a "hell of drama".
