Synopsis:
A bold, haunting and ground-breaking exploration of love between Nigerian women, in which tragic events long buried in the past threaten to break out, consume and destroy relationships in the present; when Mary comes out to her extremely religious mother, Abi, it unleashes family secrets about her grandmother Doris and the truth behind who Faye really is.
