Plots(1)
Precious Jones, an inner-city high school girl, is illiterate, overweight, and pregnant… again. Naive and abused, Precious responds to a glimmer of hope when a door is opened by an alternative-school teacher. She is faced with the choice to follow opportunity and test her own boundaries. Prepare for shock, revelation and celebration. (official distributor synopsis)
