A middle-aged woman feeds slots at a secret, back-room parlor. A new mother slowly realizes that no amount of success can erase Blackness. A young woman returns home to join the other women in her family in waging spiritual combat with the ghosts of their past. This is a masterful portrait of interconnected generations of Black women and how trauma is carried inside the body, inside the flesh and skin, while a testament to how healing can be found within.
