Prison Song

The American dream is at odds with the justice system in this story about the deterioration of the soul of one inner-city African-American male. Raised primarily in group homes, Elijah (rapper Q-Tip) lifts himself up through art and education -- but when a full college scholarship is revoked, frustration and anger cause him to accidentally kill another teen. Convicted and jailed, Elijah once again attempts to free his broken spirit through art.
