HiFi SoundSamenvatting
Hortence, een jonge zwarte vrouw, weet al van kindsbeen af dat ze geadopteerd was. Terwijl de rest van de familie na de dood van haar pleegmoeder om het huis vecht, beslist Hortence haar biologische moeder op te zoeken. Tot haar grote verbijstering is haar moeder blank. Ze woont samen met haar dochter Roxanne en heeft een moeilijke relatie met haar broer Maurice, een bruiloftsfotograaf. Zodra het 'geheim' van Hortence aan de oppervlakte komt, komen er een heleboel andere familiegeheimen bovendrijven.Credits
