American History X

Compelling drama dealing with racial hatred as a former neo-nazi tries to prevent his younger brother from going down the same path to violence and fascism.

When their racist father is killed in the line of duty by a black man, the elder son reacts by taking part in a race-related killing, and becomes a hero-figure to his brother. Upon his release he finds himself ready to renounce his actions, but history refuses to pass away as the younger sibling also becomes embroiled in violence.
