When Love Kills is the directorial debut of actress and director Tasha Smith.  Based on a gripping true story, Lil Mama stars as Falicia Blakely, a young woman who gets caught up with the wrong man who leads her down a dangerous path of drugs, guns and more. At 16 and already a mother, Blakely is at odds with her mom (“Basketball Wives’” Tami Roman) and soon begins working at a strip club when she meets Dino (“House of Payne’s” Lance Gross), a man who she thinks is the man of her dreams. Dino, however, is much more than he seems and soon pulls Falicia into a dangerous life of crime that changes everything she knows about herself. Dino’s empty promises of a life together turn Falicia into a pawn in his dangerous games and she’s forced to prove her love for him at the expense of innocent lives.
