Synopsis
When neuro-divergent DOLLY has a vision of her sister Kemi’s brutal death there is no turning back. She has to navigate both a toxic adolescent landscape and the spiralling mysteries of her ancestral connection to magic in order to save her sister.Dolly finds herself caught in the middle of a feud between her friend Sylvia and Kemi’s friend Anita when the headmaster of St. Francis - who happens to be Anita’s father - is discovered having an affair with Ms. Bello, the school’s art teacher and Sylvia’s mother. As if navigating these conflicts weren’t challenging enough, Dolly soon realizes she may not be the only one inheriting otherworldly powers. These powers have the potential to both liberate and devastate, and whispers of "juju" spread quickly. Before long, the girls are forced to confront the dangers that lie in the shadows of belief, superstition, and their own untapped abilities.Tiptoeing the fine line between comedy and horror, SHE HAD IT COMING is a devilishly sharp dive into the late '90s, chronicling the misadventures of teenage girls from the diverse suburbs of London.’
