A gritty, hip-hop-inflected drama about young Black car thieves caught between the thrill of joyriding and the brutal reality of police violence and systemic oppression.

Jason and Midget are two young, black teenagers living in Newark, New Jersey, the unofficial car theft capital of the world. Their favourite pastime is that of everybody in their neighbourhood: stealing cars and joyriding. The trouble starts when they steal a police car and the cops launch a violent offensive that involves beating and even shooting suspects.
