On December 22, a drugstore in Harlem, New York, was robbed.  During the robbery, the owner of the drugstore, Alguinaldo Nesbitt, was brutally murdered.  Steve Harmon, a 16-year-old African American high school student, is now on trial for being an accomplice for the incident.   Steve records his experiences in jail in diary form and the court trial as a film, hoping to come to terms with his identity as an American citizen.
