Synopsis
Complicated by the trappings of bloodline and race difference--the story of brotherhood challenged by brotherhood of friendship. Two brothers, Cal and Aaron, attend a Christmas party hosted by Cal's friend Cassius. When Aaron gets into a fight with Cassius, Cal sides with his friend, not his brother. Ostracized by his mother and sibling, Cal becomes more deeply involved in his friendship with Cassius, who is similarly estranged from his family. But when Christmastime rolls around again, Aaron strikes back.
