Mother is pushed to the brink in psychological crime drama starring  Taraji P. Henson, Sherri Shepherd and Teyana Taylor

Janiyah, a single mother, struggles with late rent, a frequently ill daughter, and an unrewarding job.

As her actions draw widespread attention, Janiyah struggles to come to terms with reality.
