"Every Life Is Worth Saving."
Washington DC, a symbol of freedom and power in the eyes of the United States and the rest of the world. But in the shadow of looming monuments and majestic government buildings, lies an underworld very different from the well-known images of the capital - a world ruled by violent gangs and ruthless drug dealers. Lucas, a 14-year-old boy caught up in gang life in Washington DC, is determined that his 10-year-old brother will not follow the same path. When a war veteran from Afghanistan walks into the neighborhood, an opportunity presents itself.
