In the stifling heat of 1960s Jackson, Mississippi, a young woman with a burning ambition to become a writer embarks on a project that will shake the foundations of her deeply divided community. Driven by a simmering sense of injustice and a keen eye for the unspoken truths, she begins to document the lives and experiences of the Black maids who serve the city's prominent white families. What unfolds is a powerful tapestry of courage, resilience, and the quiet dignity of those often overlooked, revealing the profound impact of their stories on those who finally dare to listen.
