A broken girl will blossom into a woman warrior.

Dia Fontaine has hit rock bottom and needs a change.

Driven from home by her toxic mother, she encounters a social club of Black women who assist in her healing and transformation.

The social club is a secret society rooted in the history of the Dahomeyan Amazons.

During her training process, Dia finds rivalry in ShaRae, a fellow trainee, and a new mother figure in Ms. Manners, the Senior Instructor who embodies the spirit of the organization.

Hard Pressed is a contemporary, emotion-driven story about mothers, daughters, and women warriors.
