FULL LENGTH -- Old-time religion, the civil rights movement, feminism and police brutality collide in the household of an unconventional family of black women in the Nation's Capital. Akiylah resists the family church, placing her at odds with both her sister Autumn and their grandmother Patricia, who took them in after a car accident claimed the lives of their parents. However, the sisters are united against a common enemy: racial and sexual harassment by the police. They attend a #BlackLivesMatter demonstration and find themselves getting into big trouble, forcing Patricia to unveil a dark secret from her own revolutionary past. Could Patricia's revelation tear this fragile family apart for good?
