A young black couple, Byron (Academy Award nominee Terrence Howard) and Nina (Nicole Ari Parker) has an ill-timed breakdown while traveling from Chicago to L.A. The backwater town the couple gets stranded in is filled with rednecks that don't take too kindly to uppity Negroes. The film then becomes part thriller, part racial/sociological commentary as Byron tries to extricate his wife and himself from a steadily worsening situation. -g. mcclaren forde
