It's been a long time, but Ruby Dee finally comes back to the big screen in a starring role.
Winner of the 2006 Sundance World Cinema Audience Choice Award, "Naming Number Two" stars Ruby Dee as Nanna Maria, an elderly Fijian matriarch. Inspired by a dream, Nanna commands her grandchildren to throw one last great feast at which she will name her successor. But this simple task proves nearly impossible as the deep-seated rifts of a painful family legacy threaten to not only derail the feast, but to tear apart the family as well. Before it's too late, the grandchildren must unite the family and prove to their Nanna Maria that her family will again know passion, joy and life, before - and after - she's gone.
