RITA (The Sole Survivor) is a story about a 17 year old girl who had to take on the streets of Atlanta single handed with nothing more than determination by her side. Her childhood was far from the realm of a fairy tale we grew up listening to. Having to raise her 8-year old sister because her mother was strung out on heroin made her mature past her age. She blames all of their hardships on her father for not being there when they needed him the most. She was extremely bitter and wanted to prove she didn’t need a man for shit. Rita realized early on she had to capitalize on the gifts she was born with. She was young, beautiful and most of all deadly. Rita grew up feeling men couldn’t be trusted and she exploited them for their weakness. She used every thirsty ass nigga that crossed her path to try to reach her goal.
Rita’s relationship with her father was confined to the visitation room of a U.S. Federal Penitentiary. He and his partner Sugar Meat were two of the biggest pimps in Atlanta, had a lock on the pimp game. That was until Dillard; Rita’s father, was charged for murdering an informant and white slaver. Everybody abandoned him, including his partner. After blowing trial, he was sentenced to 25 years to life. The only thing Rita could remember growing up as a child was her old man always professed his innocence and keep reassuring her he would be home soon. But after 15 long years of hearing the same old stories; over and over, Rita finally decided to let go.
But little did she know her life was headed on a collision course headed straight for destruction, death and despair. After loosing everything she worked so hard to hold together, she was faced with the chore of having to go back to the one person she vowed to forget. With no one else to turn to Rita had to dig deep inside her fathers past in search of answers. What she discovered rocks the foundation of everything she believes in and it sends her on a ride or die mission to vindicate him. Which means she has to infiltrate a criminal organization ran by one of the most notorious pimps in the South. Unfortunately for her, when it rains it pours. Money, drugs and infatuation sucks her deeper into a life of murder, deception and betrayal. With lies and deceit running rampant Rita becomes consumed by a lifestyle she despises the most, “PROSTITUTION”. When it’s all said and done who will be the one who will be the one left standing?
