Per the outlet, the film “follows Fela Blackburn, whose life is shattered when she loses her husband, Rodney Blackburn, at the hands of a police officer. Determined to get to the bottom of the incident and seek justice, she leans on her best friend, Marley Wells, who is a lawyer, and her husband, Tony Wells, who is a former cop turned private investigator, to use their influence to find the truth. But as the truth unfolds, Fela learns that her entire world is rooted in lies and betrayal.”
Along with serving as the movie’s writer, Perry will produce and direct the project. Tyler Perry Studios’ Angi Bones and Will Areu, along with Jamall Ellzy, also serve as film producers.
