Overview

"BYRON "BRICK" WILSON (Black, 40s) has just been released from a nine-year prison sentence for selling Marijuana. His best friend, ALLEN "A-TEE" THOMPSON, (Black, 40s) waits for Brick at the prison gates. As A-Tee drives Brick home, he is pulled over by Narcotics Detective DOUG SMITH (Black, 40s). Doug welcomes Brick home and provides a coded warning against going back on the street. Brick discovers his mother, TINA, (Black, 60s) has breast cancer. Tina dies the next day. Brick decides to rob a Cannabis store. He wants revenge on the system that put him in jail for a drug that is now legal. He recruits A-Tee to assemble a crew to take Big Al's Weed Shop. They pull off the heist and get past Doug. Doug turns a drug cartel onto the score. Doug's plan backfires and he is killed by the cartel. The film ends with Brick watching his son play varsity basketball." -- Abstract
