So, so many holes...

This movie attempts to bring a positive message and does succeed in bringing a positive message of compassion, courage, perseverance, forgiveness & perhaps more. If you can overlook the holes in the story then, overall, there is a good message here. Definitely room for improvement though...A woman dies in childbirth and no explanation is given initially as to what happened to the baby; then, SURPRISE! Suddenly the baby you weren't told anything about appears! The progression of this movie is very awkward. There would be no possible way that people who live in Joan's home would not find out after months of living there that Tina is Joan's daughter and what, in the first place would be the reason for attempting to even keep that a secret? Nor is it ever acknowledged or referred to in any way that Joan wanted to keep it secret that Tina was her daughter. Good message but certain aspects of story not thought through well.

Triggering triggering triggering.

I hate it! Ngl, the first half I watched with disbelief that a new mom would struggle that bad with no help. And how she pretty much sent herself to the streets. Then into the second half all I wanted to know was "where tf is her baby"? So I skipped to the point she explains what happend. It triggered me so much I created this app just to write this review! Why tf waist so much time to release such despair! Made me sick! When baby daddy pops back up and wants to be a part of this baby's life! Wtf! I stopped watching. Then went back for the point and I see it's about faith. Ok. 3stars. God bless.!

People need to know about this movie

OMG!!!! I didn't know that Kim Fields had this kind of acting inside of her. Her acting in this movie was on another level. This movie was wonderful and the acting is top-notch. Danielle Deadwyler is one of the best young actresses around. She was wonderful in From Scratch and she is even better in this one. Don't get me started on Malinda Williams. She didn't have a lot of lines but she acted the heck out of what she was given. I can't say enough good things about this movie. I am just in awe of everyone acting in this movie. It is spectacular. Kudos to the directors, producers, and to the actors. Well done.
