Declining participation leads two Milwaukee area high schools—one black and urban, the other white and suburban—to combine their football programs. Tensions rise as the disparities between the two schools become increasingly apparent over the course of the season. At the center of the drama, the teenage athletes attempt to make sense of their adolescence in the face of the racial fissures in their community.
