| Summary |
After a long time in the army, an Afro-American soldier returns to his hometown, where, years ago, his brother was executed for the rape and murder of two white girls. The commando believes his brother to have been innocent and seeks a proof for that, but there are some people in the town who will stop at nothing to hide the secrets of their past. Based on the true story of George Stinney Jr., at 14 years old, the youngest African American to be executed in 1944. In 2014,70 years later, a judge overturned the erroneous murder conviction. |
