Sinopses(1)

An intimate portrait of a young Black American woman dealing with a drug addiction and long-term physical and mental abuse from her father. Only after her tyrant's death can she and her whole family face the consequences of living under pressure, which has become a never-ending story for them. This heavily personal documentary – personal even for the director herself, who is Suzanne's aunt – evokes the aesthetics of home video. Conversations carried in the middle of everyday activities form an image of an intentionally unreflected social pathology right at the moment of beginning treatment and restoring both a mutual and personal trust.
