About this movie

After a difficult childhood drives him into the grasps of a white supremacist gang, Bryon (Jamie Bell, delivering a visceral, explosive performance) tries to escape to a new life, all the while questioning whether he's capable of undoing— and repenting for — the evil he's done. Academy Award-winning writer-director Guy Nattiv makes his English-language feature debut with this galvanizing story of transformation, inspired by actual events.

We've seen and heard enough about the supposed epidemic of hate coming out of the white males of the world to last us several life times. Obviously this one side of the coin we have been forced to examine so incredibly thoroughly for so sickeningly long has gotten to the point that it's become a real social issue worth examining in it's own right. How does one segment of the human population react to being demonized with such a constant flow of propaganda and with such sophisticated and laser focused intensity that even Joseph Goebbels couldn't have imagined it in his most vivid fantasies? Perhaps movies like this, which are only a tiny fragment of a vastly larger program, have become a part of the problem. Maybe, just maybe when you grow up being told that you and your ancestors have never been anything but evil, genocidal, thieves this causes more hatred instead of less? Time to turn that coin over and see what's on the other side, quit beating this maimed beyond recognition dead horse, and see a different perspective for once.

To start, there are good, in between, and bad in all races. Everyone can change, you just have to be willing to do it. Hatred is majority taught, not born with. The only time that race is not an issue, is when the weather is bad where people comes together, or mass shootings, and when Children are struck with Cancer, or other diseases. If one person in a race does something to another race, Then that whole race of people are hated. Please don't say it isn't true, because I've heard it all.
