Texas Correctional Youth Authority prison guard Cleveland "Stack" Stackhouse (director/star Charles S. Dutton) masterminds an innovative track program for some of the institution's most aggressive female inmates in this inspirational Lifetime Original Movie. With racial tensions rising among inmates, Stack realizes that something must be done to keep the situation from spiraling out of control, and establishes an interracial track team in order to teach the young offenders the merits of working together toward a common goal. Before long, racial barriers are crumbling, and the girls are gaining the discipline and confidence needed to break free of their self-destructive cycles. Based on a true story.
