An estranged bi-racial couple must confront their feelings about race and bias after their son is detained by the local police following a traffic stop incident. Their disparate histories and backgrounds inform their assumptions as they try to find out what happened to their son.
The gripping drama by Christopher Demos-Brown, tackles race, family, and justice within the context of a divided America. Premiering on Broadway in 2018, it quickly gained attention for its intense storytelling and powerful performances, including that of Kerry Washington. The play's significance and impact led to a Netflix adaptation in 2019, directed by Kenny Leon, who also directed the stage version.
