In 1934 St. Louis, Missouri, Pamela, outwardly a young, white socialite (but inwardly an unsettled late adolescent), is about to give birth to her first child.
In 1934 St. Louis, Missouri, Pamela, outwardly a young, white socialite (but inwardly an unsettled late adolescent), is about to give birth to her first child. To assist in the delivery, she searches for the 'colored' midwife, Miss Minnie, who attended her own birth in 1911. She and her husband's families vehemently protest. During the final months of her pregnancy, her husband, Frank, even brings in relatives to closely monitor Pamela's behavior and whereabouts. Deviously, Pamela sidesteps them by secretly pressuring her 'colored' maid to help her. What kind of calamity and racial tension will their search dredge up? Could the outcome be murder?
