Unseen in its complete form for many years, director Bill Gunn's "meta-soap opera" was shot on video between 1980 and 1981 and the filmmaker encouraged improvisation to smudge the line between artful fiction and documentary. Personal Problems draws inspiration from the black literary and artistic underground of New York City. Working-class life in late-1970s Harlem resolves around Johnnie Mae Brown.
