Expect a scandalous, gasp-worthy comedy that will make you laugh, cry, and then call your mother.
A Black family that doesn't believe in therapy tries one last Hail Mary at healing: an intervention. The letters are written, the therapist has arrived, and then Amanda walks in, and the plan starts to fall apart. It's a film for anyone who loves family secrets, for mothers whose children couldn't possibly understand what they went through, and for children whose parents drive them up the wall.
Bring a friend you can talk with afterward.
Content Note: strong language, drinking and addiction, and family conflict.
Members enjoy unlimited access all year.
As little as $25/month per person.
