Written by Charles Fuller

Directed by Lou Bellamy

In the immediate aftermath of their daughter’s tragic murder, the Tate family is struggling to find her killer. What used to be a compassionate black community has been rendered powerless by recurring gang violence and police apathy. Reuben Tate’s pleas to his neighbors are met with icy refusals or indifference. Racked with a sense of helplessness, he posts a plea for humanity that rouses an emotionally ravaged neighborhood to its feet.
