Every city has a breaking point.

In 1992, Mercer is desperately trying to rebuild his life and his relationship with his son amidst the turbulent Los Angeles uprising following the Rodney King verdict.

As tensions rise and chaos erupts, both families reach their boiling points when their worlds collide.
