The film is about the aftermath of an incident that occurred April 23, 1998, on the New Jersey Turnpike. Four young men (Danny Reyes, Keshon Moore, Rayshawn Brown, and Jarmaine Grant) from New York City were traveling on the turnpike on their way to a basketball talent showcase in North Carolina when they were pulled over by two state troopers and shot at thirteen times. Three of the young men were seriously injured, and the incident sparked conversations about Police brutality as well as Racial profiling
