When her grandmother dies, teenager Rain (Renel Brown) travels from her tiny island hometown to Nassau, to search for the mother she has never known, Glory (Nicki Micheaux). When she finds Glory, she's crestfallen to discover that her mother is an occasional prostitute, and she does her best to reform her. Rain also realizes at school that she has a natural ability as a runner, and, with the help of her coach (CCH Pounder), she trains aggressively in the hope of winning a scholarship.

Audience Member A touching tale of hope and redemption from the perspective of a talented youth with the potential to be more than she ever thought possible for herself. Rated 4.5 out of 5 stars 01/15/23 Full Review Audience Member I have been waiting for what seems like forever to watch this film, and It truly did not disappoint. Earns a permanent place in my top movies list. Congrats to all those involved. Rated 5 out of 5 stars 02/03/23 Full Review Audience Member The earnest attempt to represent a place we usually only see in travel brochures can only go so far in helping one to overlook the film's obvious flaws.
