Remember when you were college and you saw some of the sororities and fraternities Step and you felt so alive watching them make music with their bodies? That is the feeling you get when you watch Step Sisters streaming now on Netflix.
Jamilah (Megalyn Echikunwoke) seems to have the perfect life. She is president of her Black sorority and captain of their winning Step team, her boyfriend is all she could ever ask for, she works in Student Affairs and she is all set to go to Harvard Law because she is a legacy. That is until her parents (Sheryl Lee Ralph and L. Warren Young) tell they won’t sponsor her to get in. Now she needs to find another way to get into Harvard Law, so she asks her boss Dean Berman (Robert Curtis Brown) to write her recommendation. He turns her down.
Then one day, the former RA runs into her former resident Beth (Eden Sher), who invites her to a party at her sorority house. While they are at the party one of the SBB sisters is filmed having sex on the lawn and the dean is not happy with the video going viral. He threatens to pull their charter at the end of semester unless they do this one thing. He tells Jamilah if she can get the girls of SBB to win a charity Step competition, they he will get her in to Harvard Law and Sigma Beta Beta can stay on campus.
There’s just a few problems with that. Jamilah doesn’t want to do it, SBB is very white and the sisters don’t get along at all. The latter two make stepping in unison nearly impossible. Jamilah has her work cut out for her and no one understands why she is doing it. Especially, after the girls are laughed off the stage during their first competition.
Not only are they losers, so is Jamilah. Everything is falling apart in front of her. She loses her sorority sisters, her boyfriend, her job, her friends and any hope she had to go to Harvard. She has one more chance to do the impossible, but will it be possible?
