Lamont 'Hood' Mason is a fearless twenty-year-old gangsta, born and
raised in the projects of Brooklyn. In and out of foster homes for
many years, the only thing constant in his young life was the
safety of a Brownsville barbershop owned by a father figure called
Fat Daddy. Hood has been in love with Fat Daddy's smart and
beautiful daughter, Jacqui, for as long as he can remember. Unlike
his best friend and hustling partner, Dreko, Hood works the chair
at Fat Daddy's because Jacqui, who has dreams of leaving the
ghetto, insists he build himself a skill for the future if he wants
to be with her. But cutting hair isn't the only thing that Fat
Daddy has going on - he also trades stolen goods in the back of the
shop and washes drug money for the notoriously brutal kingpin named
Chaos. When Fat Daddy's gambling habit puts Jacqui's life in
danger, Hood tries to work off Fat Daddy's debts for him. Chaos
sends Hood to deal with a beef he's been having with rival dealers,
but things go horribly wrong. The fallout from this fateful night
includes arrests, lockups, and deaths. Hood sees his world turned
upside down and is forced to pick up the shattered pieces, one by
one.
