Overview

SCARLETT is a tough lesbian with British and Nigerian roots. She carries the scars of an abusive relationship, both in her heart and on her body. Pressured into a nine-month service in her father's country, she embarks on a journey where she must confront not only her own demons but also the deeply ingrained prejudices of her roommate, Alice.

ALICE, a woman who lost both of her parents at a young age, has been hardened by poverty and burdened with looking after her younger siblings. Despite not having much, she has a boyfriend who loves her, and her life is okay. She goes to camp to serve her country but ends up being paired with an unusual roommate.
