Summary:
Eden is expecting two weeks of summertime fun
when
her cousin
Winter
, comesto visit her in Los Angeles, but it turns out he’s not just there to sightsee.
Winter
is determined to find out what happened to his father, who disappeared ten years earlier from the Watts area of L.A. So the cousins set out to investigate together, and what they discover brings them joy—and heartache. Their search also opens up a whole new understanding of their world
when
Watts explodes in a clash between the police and the Black residents. For six days during the summer of '65, Watts is like a war zone, and Eden and
Winter
become heroes in their own part of the drama. For Eden, who hopes to be a composer, these summer days with
Winter
Robeson
are like a song with an unexpected ending, full of changes in tempo and mood—a song that is totally unforgettable.
