Synopsis
In a small Mississippi town an African-American landowner (Juano Hernandez) is arrested on a murder charge. Resentful of Hernandez' industriousness, the white townsfolk are eager to see him hang. The attorney uncle (David Brian) of a young white boy who has befriended Hernandez, agrees to take the accused man's case. His job is complicated by the lynch-mob mentality of the dead man's brother and Hernandez' refusal to reveal the name of the man he suspects as the killer.
