Written and directed by Tyler Perry, the film is based on the stage play 'For Colored Girls Who Have Considered Suicide When The Rainbow Is Enuf' by Ntozake Shange.
The story consists of a series of poems performed through a cast of nameless women known only by a color. The characters deal with subjects such as love, abandonment, rape and abortion.
