Bryon
(Bell) is a heavily tattooed super macho Nazi. Violence, racial hatred and
drugs are a part of daily life. A confrontation with the mother of one of his
victims pricks at his conscience and slowly he starts to think about getting
out.
It’s
not easy to leave the Nazis, especially when your family and everyone you know
are in the club and your adoptive parents are the leaders.
His
new girl friend Julie (Macdonald) and the leader of the One Person Project
(Google it), Daryl Jenkins (Colter), help him in the slow, dangerous and
painful process of leaving the Nazis.
It’s no sentimental feel-good rescue story. It’s a grim and scary close-up look at Nazism in today’s America.
