In suburban South Florida, a father’s hard push for his two teenagers to excel starts to splinter the family after his son’s wrestling injury upends everything. Sterling K. Brown is the demanding parent at the center of the home, while Kelvin Harrison Jr. carries the pressure as the high school athlete whose future is suddenly thrown off course. What begins with practice, school, and teenage romance widens into a family rupture, with everyday drives, arguments, and celebrations taking on a volatile edge.
