Synopsis

It's 1962, a year after the death of Sam's father, and Sam and her mother must move to
Jackson, Mississippi, her father's conservative hometown. Needless to say, they don't
quite fit in.
People fear that Sam, her mother, and her mother's artist friend, Perry, are in the
South to "agitate" and to shake up the dividing lines between black and white and blur
it all to gray. As racial injustices ensue—sit-ins and run-ins with secret white supremacists—
Sam learns to focus with her camera lens to bring social injustice out of the
darkness and into the light.
