Mourners have gathered at a Harlem funeral home to pay their respects to a beloved and feared childhood teacher, Sister Rose. There’s only one problem – someone’s stolen the body. In a series of sharp vignettes, old friends and new reminisce about the past, and face the reality of whom they’ve become. As memories are unearthed, vivid shouting matches, explosive rants, and surprisingly touching moments of hope reveal a group of broken souls and the rough, tumbled neighborhood that formed them. Raw, gritty, and rancorously funny, Our Lady of 121st Street is a deeply human character study of people in an elusive search for redemption.
