Synopsis by Jonathan Crow
Detdrich McClure directs this road movie about two African-American men who venture out on a motorcycle odyssey, leaving the violence of the streets behind. Fresh from a stint in jail, ex-gang member Panther (Glenn Plummer) thinks that the only way he can go straight is to leave L.A. So with his buddy Ray (Chris Spencer) in tow, the two hop on a couple hogs and embark on a countrywide journey. Along the way, they pick up a sheltered film student hitchhiker (J. Lamont Pope) and encounter a couple of southern belle rappers.
