Description

The longest journey is from daughter to mother.

STORIES

“Up in the Air”: Lupita and her mom enter a tense standoff on top of a seaside wall in Puerto Rico.

Original score by Lauryn Newson.

“Who's Bad?”: In Toronto, young Evelyn is proving to be quite the handful for her disapproving mom — skipping class, throwing parties, ignoring curfew. But her parents have an old-school trick of their own up their sleeves.

Thank you to Evelyn Koomson and her mother, Yaa Owusu Nsiah, for bringing this story to us!

Produced by Jessica Kariisa. Original score by Lalin St Juste. Translation by Oral Ofori. Voiceover by Akua Edusei Al-Hassan.
