The feature-length documentary follows veteran actor Sharon Washington as she sets out to write a play about her fairy tale childhood living in a custodian apartment inside a New York City public library. Through the writing process she’s forced to reconcile this magical tale with her own reality, the nuanced story of a young African American girl getting along in the world, and suddenly finds herself facing demons she thought she'd exorcised decades ago.
