They drift precariously into a life of anti-social behavior, stealing bikes, smashing windows, and daubing graffiti on walls. Diagnosed as ‘elective mutes’ they are ferried away to a special school that does little to improve their condition.

Their strange behavior and the fact they were the only black kids their classmates had encountered make them prime candidates for playground bullying. When two sisters lock themselves away from the world in self-imposed silence, they unleash immense creative energy trapped within the four walls of their room and their colorful imagination.
