Olga and Prieto Acevedo are power siblings poised to leave their mark on New York City: Prieto is a rising star in the local politics scene, and Olga is a wedding planner to Manhattan’s social elite.
But their promising careers face disruption when their radical mother Blanca, an activist for Puerto Rico’s independence movement, returns to their Brooklyn home.
