From Producer Jennifer Pessima and Executive Producer Dolapo Erinkitola and Uncle Reece, comes the in-depth biography of one of the world’s most prolific young men.
John ‘Boonk’ Gabbana’s story is one that has been waiting to be told for quite some time. John Gabbana, a native of Jacksonville, Florida, is a survivor of over 21 years of abuse. In the documentary, John details his journey from a traumatic childhood of food poverty and witnessing his stepfather’s passing from cancer to a teen life of drug addiction, gang violence, becoming a viral, yet unpaid social media star, to eventually, being a victim of gun violence. During his time as a social media influencer, John created prank videos and garnered over five million followers on his Instagram platform. The prank videos were created under the notorious ‘Boonk Gang’, as a tribe for John’s then followers to experience his viral videos.
John found the mental strength to forgive many he felt wronged him in his life, including forgiveness for his biological father. His biological father had been absent from John’s life over the years, and John knew that by forgiving his father, he could continue to maintain internal peace.
