It’s 2012, with racial tensions in America escalating and about to explode. White police sergeant Tim O’Connor arrests African American scholar Chester Washington III for breaking into what turns out to be his own house — in one of America’s most progressive cities. A media frenzy erupts when the professor’s daughter Chloe’s video commentary goes viral, and U.S. President Michael Rivera weighs in with comments that, taken out of context, seem critical of the police. Trying to calm the waters, the President invites Chester and Tim to the White House for a beer, and he sends the pair on a national Racism in America listening tour, which Chloe films. Chester, Tim and Chloe’s trust ebbs and flows as conversations collide and they encounter a nation divided. An examination of race, class, perspective and hope, this jazz-inspired multi-genre film tracks this unlikely trio’s journey as each changes in ways they never would have believed — or maybe wanted.
