A privileged, drug-dealing high school dropout heads down a collision course with tragedy after his cousin is slain in Harlem and his best friend is arrested as the prime suspect in the killing. Inspired by author Nick McDonell's critically acclaimed novel, Joel Schumacher's gritty inner-city drama tells the story of White Mike (Chace Crawford), a wayward teen who makes more money selling pot to rich kids from the Upper East Side than he ever would with a high school diploma. Spring break is here, everyone in Manhattan is looking to score and White Mike's spoiled clientele always spring for the good stuff, making this an especially profitable time of the year. But when White Mike's cousin winds up on the losing end of a deadly skirmish in an East Harlem housing project, the drug-pushing dropout finds his comfortable existence shaken to the core.
