- Summary
- Ten-year-old boys Earl and Wilford are frequently courtside in the South Side of Chicago watching their role model Nathaniel "Cornbread" Hamilton as he prepares to leave for college on a basketball scholarship. Their world comes crashing down in an alley when two cops--one white, one black--mistake Cornbread for a fleeing burglary suspect. What follows threatens to tear apart the community.
