Synopsis

What does it look like to give up hope and hold on to it at the same time? Undoing Crazy presents Carla Sinclair, 46, a dutiful daughter to Eve Sinclair, a loyal friend to Dana Washington and a dedicated teacher at Fredrick Douglass Middle School. Lately, Carla’s grown tired of it all, there’s an emptiness and ache in her heart—she questions whether she should live—or not. Carla believes no one cares what she wants, not her mama, not her best friend, not even the fine brother she meets at the Lucky Lounge. Only a young audacious spoken word performer named Queen has the ability to truly see Carla and her troubles. Set in the bed of political activism known as Oakland, California, Undoing Crazy is full of culture and truths learned from unexpected places.
