Showing in:
Elwood Curtiss college dream shatters alongside a two-lane Florida highway. Bearing the brunt of an innocent misstep, hes sentenced to the netherworld of Nickel Academy, a brutal reformatory sunk deep in the Jim Crow South. He encounters another ward, the seen-it-all Turner. The two Black teens strike up an alliance: Turner dispensing fundamental tips for survival, Elwood, clinging to his optimistic worldview. Backdropped by the burgeoning Civil Rights Movement, Elwood and Turners existence appear worlds away from Rev. Martin Luther Kings burnished oratory. Despite Nickels brutality, Elwood strives to hold onto his humanity, awakening a new vision for Turner.
