After the death of her grandfather, a young woman experiences a spiritual awakening when she is called by Yemaya, the orisha Goddess of the Sea. Yanise connects with the Yoruban goddess of fertility, love, and family, and takes her place in an intergenerational cultural tradition. An ode to our ancestors, their magic, and the source from which we came.
