A morally weighty crime thriller that uses a wrongful killing and its aftermath to examine systemic racism, personal accountability, and the corruption of justice.

A police officer who while responding to a violent hostage call, kills the African American suspect only to later learn of his innocence. Sensing this was a set-up, and facing repercussions, he must track down the person responsible while examining his own accountability and the ingrained racism which brought him to this point.
