The Trade (2026)

Sunny’s childhood ended long before it should have. As a tough, sharp-witted young Latina, she’s the accidental head of her household—balancing chores, keeping up a flawless front for the neighbors, and quietly managing the chaos her father Nada’s crippling addiction leaves in its wake. But her most dangerous job is the one nobody sees: standing sentinel day and night, intercepting the local dealers before they can slide another hit through her front door. In a world where survival means playing caretaker, guardian, and hostage negotiator all at once, Sunny fights to keep her family intact—one closed door, one clean dish, and one intercepted deal at a time.
