Thirteen

Recommended for ages 12+. The smoke has barely cleared from the candles on Nina's thirteenth birthday cake when she suddenly disappears from her loving home. While her African American family and a community of friends desperately search for clues, Nina embarks on a soul-searching journey which ultimately leads to a revelation. Returning home as casually as she left, Nina seizes upon her goal with the ingenuousness of a child and the determination of an adult as this unique coming-of-age story winds its way to the next great milestone-Nina's fourteenth birthday. A hit with mothers and daughters at our San Francisco Film Festival screening!
