Mosiah is a 2023 American independent historical short film largely based on the 1923 US court trial of Marcus Mosiah Garvey. The film was directed by Jirard and co-written by the lead actor, Samuel Lee Fudge and Jirard.[2][3][4]

The film's release on Amazon Prime Video was announced on January 19, 2025, to coincide with and commemorate the complete and unconditional pardon President Joe Biden issued to Garvey that same day.[5][6][7][8]

The film was nominated for Best Short Film at the Black Reel Awards of 2025.[9][10]
