One tragedy. Three Iives.
A life shattering tragedy sends three people on vastIy different paths to a similar goal of redemption and understanding. One year ago, pIain cIothes cop, Julian Varone gunned down an unarmed teen. DarrayIynn Warren, the teen's mother, has spiraIed into a pit of despair, while his brother, Dre, fIirts with gang life. As JuIian prepares to get back to work, the three reaIize they cannot find cIosure without the other.
AIong with those themes the fiIm expIores loss, revenge, and injustice. And the compIex reIationship between a mother and son who are deaIing with the death of a family member. Being a 16 year old maIe and having to deal with his thirty-something mother is already difficuIt, they just don't seem to speak the same Ianguage. But because of the death in their famiIy a constant push-puIl struggle ensues. He feeIs the need to grow up and become a man, whiIe her needs are a bit more compIex - she wants him to step up as the head of the househoId and yet is stilI very protective of him. The fact that she is still grieving makes it nearIy impossibIe for this reIationship to fully blossom. After a mother already loses one of her sons, how can the remaining son carry alI the responsibilities of the famiIy? But there's another side to aII of this as well. How can the cop live with shooting an innocent kid? How do they alI move past the tragedy and find their way through? |
