November 8 & 15 | In the heart of the trailer park, Lisa, a Black punk, fights to protect her community from corporate vultures. Her overnight transformation to a home-shopping channel television host thrusts her into a fateful reunion with her estranged father, who shares her precarious on-screen stage. Their fiery partnership illuminates the exploitation of corporate interests, a revelation that piques suspicion from the network's manager. As the truth unfurls, Lisa and her rebel comrades unearth the enigma of her double consciousness, forging a collective fight to protect all they hold dear. Director Nancy Mac Granaky-Quaye scheduled to attend November 8.
