​The Spiteful Woman

A poignant tale of love, loss, and the unbreakable connection between a mother and her child.

Gracie Garcia’s life takes a dramatic turn when she discovers she’s pregnant at sixteen. Overwhelmed at becoming a parent, Gracie turns to the people she trusts most for help—her parents. Gracie’s parents, however, are more concerned with appearances than their daughter and give her an ultimatum: terminate the pregnancy or leave home. Gracie chooses to flee and put miles of distance between them and her.

Months later, Gracie gives birth to a beautiful baby girl, only to wake up to find her child gone, given up for adoption without her consent by her parents. Her struggle to come to terms with her parent’s decision and the heart-wrenching loss of her baby compels Gracie to cut ties with them.

Although haunted by the life-altering event and the loss of her baby, Gracie finds the strength to reclaim her life, move forward, and heal.

Years later, on her deathbed, Gracie’s mother seeks her daughter’s forgiveness. Years later, the transgression of her parents still looms over Gracie like a dark cloud, and it’s challenging to grant the forgiveness and closure her mother desires before her passing.

The Spiteful Woman explores the themes of family, forgiveness, and the resilience of the human spirit.
