Synopsis

The author Toni Morrison is known as being one of America’s great storytellers, famed for her engrossing and artful meditations on broadly powerful themes such as race, gender and identity. After passing away in 2019, she left behind a body of work that will resonate and a career which saw her become the first black woman to win a Nobel prize in literature for her contributions to the art form. Thankfully, she also left behind this moving and intimate documentary which sees Morrison, along with well-known figures from multiple industries and disciplines from political activist Angela Davis to fellow icon Oprah Winfrey, look back at her artistic contributions and her legacy whilst also delving into her personal life and the woman behind the words.
