SYNOPSIS : Jaheim, a young man just tryna enjoy a family night out, snaps when a stranger harasses his sister and escalates things with a gun. In the heat of the moment, Jaheim fires back, killing the aggressor. Now he’s facing life in prison, pinned between a relentless detective ready to exploit any slip-up and a fierce defense attorney determined to expose the whole truth.
His sister, Nina, loves him but ain’t about to watch him go down without a fight, while his mother, weighed down by fear and heartbreak, can’t promise the “everything will be okay” that he desperately needs to hear. Even Jaheim’s ride-or-die girlfriend grapples with guilt—wondering if her loyalty is enough to save them both.
