Description

Danisha is an African Canadian girl in grade 8 whose strict grandmother reveals (through her failing memory) an exotic past life. As her memory drifts,she believes she is a jazz singer in a Detroit lounge in the 1940's, a time when mixed relationships were frowned on and often gangsters ruled the music scene.
