| Summary: | Verzio FF Submission
Rocky Otoo is the Bronx-bred teenage daughter of Ghanaian parents. With freedom in sight, Rocky rebels against her mother's rules. When their relationship reaches breaking point, Rocky flees to her father, a chief in Ghana, West Africa. What follows is a tumultuous coming-of-age story set in a homeland both familiar and strange. Her precocious — and very American — ideas of a successful, independent life conflict with her father's traditional African values. Reconciling her dual legacies becomes an unexpected chapter in this unforgettable young woman's education. |
