Synopsis

Spoiler shield

A racist woman who doesn't know about her own mixed heritage—even though she's lived with her black mother since birth—marries a pop singer. Everybody conspires to protect her from finding out about herself. It's not clear exactly why they do that.

“Some stories are better left unspoiled.”
