It stars Brendan Sexton III, Shawn Elliot, L. M. Kit Carson, and Edie Falco. The film tells the story of Marcus, a New York City street teenager who is conflicted between running with a gang who want to move up in more serious crimes and a girl he meets who tries to steer him clear from a potential life in prison.

At the 1997 Sundance Film Festival, the film won the Audience Award, Best Director Award, and Best Cinematography Award, making it the first film to ever win three awards at the festival. It was released by United Artists.
