Description
A group of black women in Oklahoma flee abuse at the hands of their men, moving into a former convent where they form a support group, an initiative which arouses the ire of the town's men. A look at a black community, with its tensions of tradition versus modernity, patriarchy versus matriarchy and fidelity versus promiscuity.
