Storia di formazione ambientata nel pieno degli anni '80 nel distretto del Queens, a New York e racconta la storia di due amici, uno bianco ed ebreo e l'altro nero. Negli Stati Uniti dilaga ancora il razzismo, motivo per cui i due giovani ambiscono a elevarsi socialmente, ma i genitori (Anne Hathaway e Jeremy Strong) del ragazzo di origine ebraica decidono di allontanarlo dall'altro e mandarlo in una scuola prestigiosa, frequentata solo da bianchi. Il ragazzo ammette di non reagire e stare zitto quando il suo amico viene insultato dai loro compagni di classe per la sua carnagione, ma sarĂ  suo nonno (Anthony Hopkins) a insegnargli come non solo qualche decennio prima anche gli ebrei venivano vessati e cacciati. Saranno proprio le parole di suo nonno a dargli il coraggio di far sentire la sua voce per difendere chi viene discriminato.
