Sugar is set in and around a vibrant hair salon where Chyna works with her sisters. She is the neighborhood’s go-to stylist, admired both for her talent and for her relationship with Raoul, the man everyone desires. But behind closed doors, their relationship is far from what it seems. When Raoul becomes increasingly violent, Chyna decides to pack up their baby, Sugar, and leave. But he doesn’t let her go easily. We follow Chyna as she breaks free from old patterns, violence, and everything she has ever known.
