A kinetic, surreal 1987 Oakland anthology that blends crime, martial arts, and hip-hop culture with irreverent humor and interconnected redemption arcs.
In 1987 Oakland, a mysterious force guides The Town's underdogs in four interconnected tales: teen punks defend their turf against Nazi skinheads, a rap duo battles for hip-hop immortality, a weary henchman gets a shot at redemption, and an NBA All-Star settles the score.
