Based on the true story of Kemba Smith, a college student falls in love with a man, only to learn later that he is a drug kingpin who led her down a path of abuse and manipulation, placing her in the middle of the government's war on drugs, and ultimately landing her in federal prison with a two-decade sentence with no opportunity for parole. Multi-talented, award-winning director Kelley Kali knew a young woman from her own younger life who suffered the same exact fate as Kemba, and she felt empowered to tell her tragic tale on film.
