Synopsis

Based on the acclaimed autobiographical one-man show by Ruben Santiago-Hudson and co-executive produced by the Oscar-winning actress Halle Berry. This warm and vibrant drama is an inspiring story of coming of age, of a mother/son love that transcends biological ties, and of an extraordinary woman who built a community and circumvented segregation in her own determined way. Like a good blues song, the film strikes notes that are painful but beautiful, ones that remain alive to both the heartbreaks and joys of life.
