a Mississippi high school senior with a vivid imagination fantasizes how living in America would be if slavery never existed.

 

In lieu of black history month - memories and flashbacks of Mya's fear, rejection, rediscovery and rejuvenation emerges. As Mya faces and overcomes her share of trauma in this indie short film drama, what remains unforgettable, besides the garden, is the depth of dialogue and narration that will send the viewing audience on a journey of raw emotion confronted through the unspoken issues we face today.
