Description

A powerful coming-of-age story about two brothers navigating the world as they train for a fencing competition. Twelve-year-old Donte faces bullying and racism at his predominantly white school, where he's often stereotyped as "Black Brother" by teachers and classmates. After being framed by the captain of the fencing team, he's suspended from school and arrested. Desperate to find a place where he belongs, Donte joins a local youth center and meets former Olympic fencer Arden Jones. With Arden's help, Donte begins training as a competitive fencer, setting his sights on taking down the fencing team captain. As he hones his skills and grows closer to achieving his goal, Donte must confront the injustices that led to his arrest and find his voice in the fight against racism.
