Confronted with a series of racially charged incidents, a young black man must overcome rage, alienation, and hopelessness in order to find his own humanity. 'An unnamed Black man questions how much of his present material success is owed to his complicity in screwing over fellow Blacks. Complicating his doubts are conversations with an old friend who drank the 'up by your bootstraps' Kool-Aid and a white girlfriend whose racial awareness might be far less than advertised. If you hated GREEN BOOK's undisturbing take on American race relations, then you need to see this film.
