White Man's Burden

In the alternative United States, African Americans own most of the country's wealth. On the other hand, the whites are the crumbling lower class who face a difficult path in coexistence with their lives. The film is about Louis Pinnock, a white chocolate factory worker, a loving husband and a father of two. One day, when he loses his job, Pinnock surrenders and decides to fight again.
