Queenie

Explores the story of Queenie Jenkins, a 25-year-old Jamaican British woman living in south London, straddling two cultures and slotting neatly into neither. Queenie is shell-shocked when her long-term boyfriend, Tom, tells her they need a break.

Queenie puts on a brave face as she moves into her new house share, but when she realises that Tom isn't coming back any time soon, she takes steps to numb her loneliness.

Queenie is in peak fun mode, using men to distract from her heartbreak. But as the fun stops being so fun, Queenie's demons begin to catch up with her.

Queenie is forced to spend Christmas with her mum, which triggers feelings she's been trying to suppress, and her escape to the office only leads Queenie further down her path of self-sabotage.

A long line of rejection and betrayal brings Queenie to a breaking point as the past catches up with her.

Queenie goes to therapy and learns about the true extent of her childhood trauma.
