Set in modern-day suburban Chicago, Samuel J. and K. follows the path of two brothers – one black and one white. In honor of Samuel K.’s college graduation, Samuel J. surprises his adopted brother with two round-trip tickets to his birthplace in Africa to explore his roots. As the brothers set out on a life changing journey from the basketball courts of Naperville to a small village in Cameroon, they confront long-buried issues of identity, race and family secrets. In this exciting Midwest premiere by Chicago native Mat Smart, the possibilities and boundaries of brotherhood are explored through an entirely new lens.
