TANGLED

Beautiful Onyinye had great dreams for the future; to one day go to medical school and alleviate the suffering of her family.
Nduka, her brother who the family pinned their hopes had left for the US for medical studies. He marries Mia, an American and is faced with culture shock.
Onyinye's family disintegrates right before her eyes and she contemplates prostitution to provide for her family.
She finds true love in Ifeanyi and just as her life starts to come together, her world is shattered by one tragic event after another.
Will Onyinye and her family survive the hammering assault of societal dictates and values against the intense personal struggle of change and pleasure?
