Synopsis: After an unexpected one-night stand, two women at very different stages of their lives share an even more intimate morning after.

“While navigating a society that perpetuates an abrasive narrative around Black women (though we certainly have plenty of reasons to be angry), we can’t ignore the fact that a film like Tender is a welcome reprieve, especially these days. It is a special salve to witness two Black women with total agency loving up on each other and providing adequate space for each other in a world that suffocates us.” | The Root
