Description |
Explores the relationship between two sisters more than 30 years after the premature death of their mother. The girls, spirited Rita and compliant Menan, are collected after two years of consideration by their white grandmother. The action shifts between childhood memory and the hospital confinement of a thirtysomething Menan in 1997. |
