When an ambitious African-American high school student (Kelvin Harrison Jr.), who lives with his domineering architect father (Sterling K. Brown), physician stepmother (Renée Elise Goldsberry), and sister (Taylor Russell) in Miami, begins to struggle with an injured bicep from wrestling and to deal with the unexpected pregnancy of his girlfriend (Alexa Demie) in Trey Edward Shults's compelling, critically acclaimed, superbly written, moving, intense, realistic, thought-provoking, star-dotted (Lucas Hedges, Bill Wise, and Clifton Collins Jr.), 135-minute film dominated by exceptional acting, cinematography, and musical score, his promising life begins to unravel and is the catalyst for the trial and tribulations and relationship tests that the whole family will go through.
