A 20-something Birmingham native with an identity crisis is on a quest to find herself and explore her heritage, through the legacy of her jolly, gambling, allotment-obsessed, storytelling grandfather.
Abuelo follows the journey of a young black woman experiencing change, with little sense of identity.
