In 1919 Philadelphia, a city still feeling the lingering effects of both the Great War and the deadly influenza pandemic, two sisters have returned to their childhood home to handle their late mother’s affairs.
Annelle (Ayanna Bria Bakari), the seemingly frivolous younger sister, is eager to sell the house and return home to her comfortable life in Boston. Older sister Janet (Jaye Ladymore), a bookish nurse who remains unmarried despite her sister’s best efforts, is having second thoughts about selling the home that also served as a hub and vital resource for Philadelphia’s Black population.
