Plot:
The story takes place in alternative America, a dark time where color roles have been reversed, and prejudice keeps the white man in his place. A poor man of the ghetto, Louis Pinnock struggles above and beyond in his position at a chocolate factory to support his wife and their children. But when he loses his job at the whim of the factory owner, Pinnock snaps under the pressure and decides to fight back the only way he knows how. With nothing left to lose, Pinnock decides to take on the system by taking on the factory owner, but the fight he will have to finish will cost him more than his job was ever worth.
