Synopsis

Malcolm Douglas runs from a convenience store.


Officer Mike Hargreaves orders the young Black man to stop, but Malcolm raises his hand and Officer Hargreaves shoots him, only to realize that Malcolm's 'weapon' was a hot dog, not a gun. 


In small-town Louisiana, the shooting of a Black teen by a white cop threatens to divide not only the community, but the South at large, and potentially the country thanks to a shadowy white nationalist organization and politicians not unfamiliar with scandal.


Mounting violence, a movement for an independent Black nation-state, and a court battle challenging interpretations of the Second Amendment may divide the United States forever. 


Will a cast of unlikely heroes- a grieving mother, an institutionalized spouse of a high-ranking official, a Supreme Court justice and a journalist looking for her own redemption- heal the chasms?
