Set against the backdrop of a prestigious cotillion in Queens, a young Yoruba navigates familial pressures and societal expectations. Her father remains indifferent, while her mother is eager to ascend the social ladder. Amidst this, her boyfriend's militant views add complexity to her journey. In a humorous twist, Yoruba rallies her fellow debutantes to confront the established elite, leading to a memorable and comedic showdown that highlights the clash between tradition and modernity in African-American culture.
