Set in Omaha Nebraska six months after Hurricane Katrina. After two 13 year old black male cousins end up dead after a gang initiation goes awry, black television newscaster Stephen Campbell struggles to come to terms with his inability to prevent the deaths. Campbell had been a mentor to the one of the youth, but his efforts to be a role model seem to have been in vain. The tragedy awakens Campbell's conflicting intra-racial views and threaten to tear apart what Campbell treasures the most, his very own family.
