A breath-taking account of efforts to end the epidemic of violence in Chicago’s impoverished black communities. Acclaimed director Steve James (Hoop Dreams) follows the ‘violence interrupters’ who have curbed their own troubled pasts to try and protect their neighbourhood. We follow the impassioned representatives from the CeaseFire Project as they battle against the relentless bloodshed of modern gang culture to provide an option of real hope.
