SYNOPSIS

By Bekah Brunstetter (writer & co-producer of This is Us)

Directed by Margaret M. Ledford

All is going well for Della. Her North Carolina bakery is legendary, and she's just been cast on her favorite television baking competition. But then, her late-best-friend's daughter comes home from New York City to ask her to make a cake for her upcoming wedding. When Della learns that Jen's about to marry a woman, she is forced to re-examine her deeply held beliefs as questions of morals, judgement and family swirl around them all.
