Synopsis

Director John Singleton, who had an outstanding debut with Boyz 'n the Hood, made this thought-provoking story set in a fictional US university campus in the mid-1990s. A young man on a sports scholarship is at the centre of the action as he's introduced to the other groups on campus, all strictly demarcated under racial lines, and the film, aside from being entertaining, poses important questions about racial politics in America and elsewhere.
