Bryant’s story of triumph against unbelievable odds is inspiring and disturbing at any given moment......

what will they do?

At seventeen, B's crew have their own individual obstacles to face.   However, always available for B’s unexpected problems, even if he doesn’t realize it.  Shania, Cameron’s sly cousin lures the crew into sticky situations, that will alter their paths forever. This story follows the crew as they fall into manhood with no direction.  They consistently titter the line of frustration and possibility groomed in the jungle of Chicago’s south side at the turn of the millennium.  

will he leave the family behind?

  •   Karen is B's little sister, who is wild and uncontrollable.  Her behavior proves to be at the core of Bryant’s misery. 

  • Just when he thinks that he has a hold on his life, Shania sticks her corrupt teeth into his only love Karen. 

  • With Stacy Bryant's mother addicted to drugs, it’s on him to carry the family.
