In 1920s New York City, a Black woman finds her world upended when her life becomes intertwined with a former childhood friend who's passing as white.
This subtle period drama swaps loud melodrama for a quiet, unsettling tension rooted in identity and performance. The sharp dialogue reveals the psychological cost of navigating a world built on racial deception.
