Greg Carter made this low-budget look at life in a Houston inner-city neighborhood where the brother of convenience-store clerk James (
Kory Washington) is murdered. With gangster Bam (
Creepa) supplying guns, James has an opportunity to get revenge, but he's unwilling to kill. Instead, he hangs out with his Vietnamese girlfriend, Haan (
Junie Hoang), the daughter of the store's owners, and he also pals around with his buddy Rip (
Lee Carter). Tensions erupt when James defends his mother (
Donna Wilkerson) and younger brother (
JaCorrey Lovelady) from the violent actions of his mother's menacing boyfriend (
Thomas Miles). Shown at the
SXSW Film Festival (Austin).
