Tagline: In this daring heist, the only color that counts is green
Plot: The year is 1968, and Anthony, a naive, sweet black teen from the Bronx, impulsively decides to join the Marines and fight in Vietnam. After a very disturbing tour of duty, Anthony returns home in 1973 to discover that a lot has changed: his country has turned its back on him, his neighborhood has deteriorated, and he finds that he's now a father. Furthermore, he's not making enough money to support a family, and matters become even worse when he loses his job. Desperate, angry and confused, the young man decides to participate in a robbery of "dead presidents", or money. But the results of this crime prove less than fruitful.
