Derek Vinyard, an articulate L.A. skinhead just released from prison for the murder of two young black men. The drama unfolds as two parallel stories. The-present, in color, presents Vinyard with the dilemma of talking his admiring younger brother out of the nazi beliefs. The past plays out in black-and-white, to show how the two brothers got to where they are.
