Sierra, a Navajo/Bengali niece, hopes for a peaceful birthday until her Navajo and Bengali aunties, both renowned bread makers and arch-nemeses, unexpectedly show up. The aunties burst into a heated bread-making competition, forcing Sierra to choose which bread reigns supreme: NAVAJO FRYBREAD VS BENGALI ROTI! Amidst an explosion of flour and a chaotic dough ball battle, Sierra whips up her own unique family recipe, FRY-ROTI. A true loaf affair, LEGEND OF FRY-ROTI: RISE OF THE DOUGH takes the “the greatest thing since sliced bread” to the next level, Navajo/Bengali style.
