Light-skinned Black woman Irene Redfield encounters an old childhood friend - Clare - who is now “passing” as a White woman. Clare is married to a racist White man, who doesn’t know she has African American blood. In spite of the danger of being found out by her husband and society at large, she finds herself helplessly drawn to Irene’s world….

Passing is a fascinating listening experience on many simultaneous levels.
