Dorrett White

The story of a mother whose two young daughters are kidnapped by her abusive ex-husband—and her all-consuming fight to get them back.

Teah, written by Dorrett White and Lori-Ann Russell, follows the emotional reunion of Teah, a successful Black woman in her 20s, and Damien, a charming Hispanic chef, as they meet at a familiar Latin restaurant after years apart. As the two reminisce about their past relationship, a playful conversation turns into a deeper exploration of their differing life choices. Teah, driven by her corporate success, grapples with the pull of her past love for Damien, who represents a simpler, more spontaneous life. Their unresolved feelings resurface as they debate whether they can make their relationship work again, despite their different paths. The story is an intimate exploration of love, growth, and the difficult choices between career ambition and personal fulfillment.
