Synopsis by Olivia Cantor

Written and directed by Charles Murray, this crime drama follows Marcus (Omar Epps), an ex-convict trying to turn over a new leaf with the help of his very supportive family. However, the cops soon visit their home once again, this time insinuating that Marcus’ brother Drew (William Catlett) may have been involved in a recent horrific crime. Just when Marcus thinks that he won’t have run-ins with the law again, he finds himself getting involved since his family is now on the line. Also starring Michael Ealy, Vanessa Bell Calloway, and Glynn Turman.
