A hard-drinking, pill-pushing 50-year-old Latina, caught up in wild nights and younger men, is forced to reckon with her past when her troubled grandson lands on her doorstep. In a gritty fight for redemption, she must decide if she’s too far gone or ready to grab the second chance she never saw coming.
Bianca, a 50-year-old Latina, lives a wild, reckless life in a rundown trailer in Port Isabel, Texas, working as a bartender on South Padre Island. As her looks fade and younger women take the best shifts, she resorts to trading sexual favors for prescription meds, which she sells to make ends meet. Her addiction-fueled lifestyle has destroyed her relationships with her daughter and father, leaving her isolated and on the edge.
When her estranged, obese, half-Black grandson is suddenly thrust into her custody, Bianca’s chaotic world is turned upside down. Starving for love and using food as his only comfort, the boy forces her to confront the mess she’s made of her life. Can Bianca clean up her act and become the parental figure he so desperately needs, or will her self-destructive tendencies push her further into the darkness?
This raw, raunchy tale explores the collision of guilt, redemption, and the unlikely bond between a broken woman and the grandson who just might save her.
