About A Shelter in Our Car
Following the death of her father, 11-year-old Zettie and her mother find themselves evicted from their 184th Street apartment. While Mama — a nurse back in Jamaica — studies to get a New York license, they sleep in their car, washing up in park restrooms.
“The current offering is unsophisticated yet endearing, with a heartwarming tug at the end.” – Variety
