Precious (2009)
Based on the novel written by Sapphire, Precious follows a sixteen-year-old African-American girl who is forced to endure an impossibly difficult life beset by bullying, sexual assault, abuse, and more as she continues to push forward despite the circumstances. Pregnant by her absent father and forced to cater to her cruel mother's every will, Precious begins to see the light at the end of the tunnel when she's given a chance to attend a new school that could open the door to possibilities she never knew were possible.
