Summary |
In 1977, as the miniseries 'Roots' hits the airwaves, two women are inspired to try and integrate their small Southern town. In a place where there are still 'right' and 'wrong' sides of the tracks, these two young women, one white, one black, forge an unlikely friendship that sparks a journey of independence and self-discovery, and ultimately results in the creation of the perfect hairdo. |
