Lionsgate has debuted a second trailer for Lee Daniels’”Precious: Based on the Novel Push by Sapphire”.

Movie is set in Harlem in 1987. It revolves around Precious, an overweight, illiterate sixteen-year-old African-American girl born into a life no one would want. Abused by her mother and raped by her father, she is pregnant for the second time and reaches the ninth grade without being able to read or write.

Instead of being swallowed by depression, she takes the opportunity thrown at her when she is offered the chance to transfer to an alternative school, Each One/Teach One. In the literacy workshop taught by the patient yet firm Ms. Rain, she breaks herself from the chains of ignorance and begins a journey that will lead her from darkness, pain and powerlessness to light, love and self-determination.
