Story
New York City, 1940s. In a crumbling tenement in Harlem, Lutie Johnson is determined to build a new life for herself and her eight-year-old boy, Bub - a life that she can be proud of. Having left her unreliable husband, Lutie believes that with hard work and resolve, she can begin again; she has faith in the American dream. But in her struggle to earn money and raise her son amid the violence, poverty and racial dissonance of her surroundings, Lutie is soon trapped: she is a woman alone, 'too good-looking to be decent', with predators at every turn.

Story
New York, vierziger Jahre. Lutie Johnson zieht mit ihrem Sohn in eine schäbige Mietwohnung in Harlem. Ein übergriffiger Hausmeister, ein Bordell im Erdgeschoss und flüchtige Schatten, die die dunklen Flure bevölkern. Luties Leben wird bestimmt von täglichen Kämpfen. Gegen die Zweifel, ob sie ihrem Sohn eine gute Mutter sein kann, gegen Armut und Rassismus, gegen die Eintönigkeit des Alltags und die Perspektivlosigkeit ihrer Lage. Doch Lutie ist entschlossen, den Sprung in ein besseres Leben zu schaffen.
