The Son Rises

Manny, a rebellious biker, must fight for justice when his younger brother is killed in a senseless police shooting. Harassed by those who have sworn to protect him, he finds parallels between his story and that of Jesus Christ, as he’s slowly nailed to a cross of his own.

Higher Ed

Ed (Pras from the Fugees) enters college on a track scholarship to escape some thugs from his past. Campus life, however, is filled with hurdles, and Ed's stoner roommate, Bud (Aries Spears), makes it hard not to fall back on old habits. But Ed's romantic interest, Lisa (Leila Arcieri), provides the incentive for Ed, if only he can win her away from her jock boyfriend, Craig (Hill Harper).
