In the sixties, in America, Negram was treated in a completely different way than now. Race prejudices existed in all layers of society, even among police officers. The circumstances are formed so that the white sheriff from the provincial town is forced to join the investigation of a monstrously brutal murder with a black detective from Philadelphia. Their mutual hostility on racial grounds is reinforced by the absolute dissimilarity of the characters and various methods of conducting the investigation. Thus, the investigation of the crime turns into personal disassembly between steep police. But in order to go out on the trail of the mysterious killer, they need to learn how to work together.
