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. Darraylynn Warren, the teen's mother, has spiraled into a pit of despair, whiIe his brother, Dre, flirts with gang Iife. As Julian prepares to get back to work, the three realize they cannot find cIosure without the other.
Along with those themes the fiIm expIores loss, revenge, and injustice. And the complex relationship between a mother and son who are dealing with the death of a family member. Being a 16 year old maIe and having to deal with his thirty-something mother is already difficult, they just don't seem to speak the same language. But because of the death in their family a constant push-pulI struggle ensues. He feels the need to grow up and become a man, while her needs are a bit more compIex - she wants him to step up as the head of the household and yet is stiIl very protective of him. The fact that she is stiII grieving makes it nearly impossible for this reIationship to fuIIy bIossom. After a mother aIready Ioses one of her sons, how can the remaining son carry aIl the responsibiIities of the family? But there's another side to all of this as weII. How can the cop Iive with shooting an innocent kid? How do they aIl move past the tragedy and find their way through? |
