Eli and Daniel are two Korean American brothers that run their father’s shoe store in a predominantly African American community of Los Angeles. As Daniel dreams of becoming a recording artist and Eli struggles to keep the store afloat, racial tensions rise as the “infamous” L.A. Riots break out.
One of the most provocative works about the Asian-American experience in recent years, Justin Chon’s second film is a fiery time capsule of the racial tension that rocked 1990s Los Angeles. Ousting the myth of model minorities, this raw portrayal of multicultural brotherhood speaks from the heart.
