    The Conviction of Lady Lorraine 

A poignant story based on one woman’s search for insight found in another woman’s fight for justice.

Synopsis:

 Set in Memphis, Tennessee near the Lorraine Motel (where Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. was assassinated), "Dee" has a brief but powerful encounter with a homeless woman, "Lady Lorraine." Dee is intrigued by the woman's 20+ year quest to right a social wrong.

She returns to Memphis one year later in hopes that "Lady Lorraine" will allow her to write her compelling story of conviction.  Dee quickly finds herself searching for answers in all the wrong places--forced to reevaluate where she has been looking.
