A comic-drama about a spirited African-American girl whose unplanned pregnancy throws her into a tailspin. Gritty, realistic, and wholly sympathetic. Special Jury Prize winner at the 1993 Sundance festival.
17-year old Chantel Mitchell has dreams: she wants to graduate from high school early and go to college. She wants to become a doctor. And she wants to escape the poor Brooklyn neighborhood where she's grown up.
Nothing scares her. She knows that she won't make the same mistakes that have sidelined so many of her friends.
Then Chantel discovers she's pregnant. And for the first time in her life she just doesn't know what to do.
