After complaining for years of homophobic bullying, teenager Abel Cedeno takes a knife to his New York school for the first time 'for protection'. Within hours, one of his classmates is dead and another seriously wounded. With Abel claiming self-defense, the story causes a sensation in the press and divides the city, pitting the black community against the gay community.\n\nFilmed with access to the accused and the victim’s families in the run-up to the trial, cameras follow the lawyers as they battle it out in the press and the court of public opinion.\n\nThis fascinating murder mystery challenges our prejudices and asks: when is a killer the victim, and how does the victim become a villain?
