According to its tagline on IMDb, Straw follows a “single mother [who] navigates a series of unfortunate events, leading her down an unforeseen path where she becomes embroiled in a situation she never envisioned, finding herself at the center of suspicion in an indifferent world.”

Award-winning Ghanaian actress Gloria Sarfo has applauded American actress Taraji P. Henson for her impeccable acting skills in Tyler Perry's Straw movie on Netflix.
