- Synopsis
- Irene Redfield is a light-skinned Black woman living in Harlem, New York, with her husband and two sons. After a chance encounter, Irene resumes contact with a childhood friend, Clare Kendry. Though Clare is also Black, she is even more fair-skinned than Irene and passes as a white woman—to the point that she&’s married to a deeply racist white man who has no knowledge of her race. As the two women&’s lives intertwine with fascination and repulsion, their troubling friendship leads them to examine the choices they&’ve made and face the dangerous consequences.
