A young girl named Beyonsea is sent to North America to join the mother she only knows through phone calls, barrels, and remittances.
Simone, Beyonsea's mother is a busy immigrant working two jobs.
Michael, their neighbour, who fled a Jamaican community, befriends Beyonsea and eventually introduces her to his alt persona, Melody Knowles.
Beyonsea and the Mothers tells the story of three Jamaicans who are brought together by circumstance in a place meant to give them second chances
