OWN’s upcoming series Queen Sugar looks super intense and emotional, but what else can you expect from film visionary Ava DuVernay?

Oprah Winfrey teams up with Ava to deliver a new show that follows siblings as they navigate a family tragedy while running a sugar cane in the South, Entertainment Weekly reports.

The drama looks steamy, as the teaser quickly moves through shots from the show that range from sexy to all-out terrifying.

In the spirit of true girl power, a woman will direct each of the episodes.

In an age of #hollywoodsowhite, there’s nothing better than seeing our sheroes write and direct the next great television narratives.

Check out the trailer below:
