We recently had a film screening organised for us by Hue Agency to watch the amazing film that is 'Rocks'! The film follows 15 year old Shola (AKA Rocks) as she tries to make sense of the world when she is left to fend for herself and her younger brother. The film portrays what it means to be the eldest daughter in an immigrant household so well! It had us laughing and crying literally at the same time so we had to record an episode to talk all about it!
