A teenager in a family shelter wages war against the system to keep her sisters together while she pursues her dreams of being a dancer in Goldie.

Goldie (Slick Woods) is a star – well, not quite yet, but at least in the eyes of her little sisters Sherrie and Supreme she is. The rest of the world is bound to take note soon too. Her big break surely awaits, she’s just got to pick up that golden fur coat she’s had her eye on first. And land a role as a dancer in a hip-hop video. And keep child welfare services from separating her from Sherrie and Supreme, after their mother is locked up. Holding onto those dreams isn’t easy when fate has placed such daunting obstacles in her path.

Co-starring Danny Hoch and well-received by the critics, Dutch director’s Sam de Jong unrated drama is at once raw, glamorous, unflinchingly realistic and relentlessly optimistic.

The short film We Love Moses from director Dionne Edwards is included as a bonus feature.
