Shadow of Light

The festering racial tensions in a Tennessee backwater town called Forrest come to the boil after a black grandmother is raped and shot by a gang of white teenagers. Only one man has the capacity to keep a lid on the mounting violence and that's the town's senior black cop, Walter Robinson. Only trouble is Walter's own life isn't in great shape: his constant infidelities are wrecking his marriage, and his nephew Cebo is the street druglord who's leading the charge to take revenge on the whites. This is a two-fisted portrayal of the New South as it really is - riven by poverty, drugs and racism, but still struggling towards a better future.
