This movie is based on the true story of top supermodel Amina Warsuma, the first dark skinned African American model to go to Paris and become a top international fashion model in Europe. Karl Lagerfeld brought her to Paris and gave her two weeks to make it. Amina was an experiment, something new, and neither of them knew whether she would succeed or not. Yet Amina did become a success within those two weeks, and ended up staying in Paris for six months, becoming a supermodel throughout Europe that entire year.
