The classic novel by James Baldwin is brought to life in this captivating screen adaptation. In the 1930s, a man leaves behind his life in the South to start anew in Harlem. He falls in love, marries, and has two sons. But he eventually feels bitter at his lack of success. He becomes increasingly strict with children as they struggle to gain his respect. When he fails to advance in the church, and must resort to hard labor for income, his anger and resentment threaten to tear his family apart.
