Zee is an 86-year-old retired teacher, who decides to go back to the happiest time of her life and make peace with the path she has chosen by reconnecting with her students from the early ’90s in East Harlem. Most of her students back then were non-readers, but through non-traditional methods, she helped them produce a significant body of poetry, which she has kept all these years. Finding the kids will give Zee the closure she needs, helping her understand her legacy as a teacher and her role as a human being.
