About
A raw, intimate drama about two aspiring hip-hop artists from the West Side—Anthony and Devontae—struggling to climb beyond their circumstances while creating music under the control of a manipulative strip-club owner named Littles. When an enigmatic outsider offers them a rare shot at escape, their loyalty fractures, and their bond is tested in ways that alter the course of their lives.
