At the start of the 1986 school year, Paulina, reigning queen bee of the Aburi Boarding School, has her sights set on winning the Miss Ghana Pageant and ultimately, the Miss Global Universe Pageant. When American transfer student Erica arrives and threatens her position atop her hive-minded friends, the power struggle begins.

We invite you to join us in celebrating She Griots!

Their stories inspire us to make a difference and boldly pursue our dreams.
