Synopsis by Clarke Fountain

Adlyn (Dona Croll) is a woman preacher married to the pastor of a large church for Caribbean blacks living in Britain. She has lived for years with a guilty secret: her son's real father is not the man she's married to. When the boy's real father (who has been living in the U.S.) shows up for the funeral of a church elder, he wants to see his son. Now she has to decide how to handle revealing the truth to her boy, and what she will say to the members of her congregation. This film is notable in that it is made by members of the British Caribbean immigrant minority, and is about their lives in Britain.
