About this movie

Daryl Gantt is a Camden native, father of eight, and printing press operator. He was raised by a single mother and strives to be a better father than his own, who abandoned him at birth. His girlfriend, Nani, is the love of his life, but struggles to cope with a crippling crack and heroin addiction, and the nefarious lifestyle to support it. More troubling is that Nani is pregnant with their new baby boy, Darnez. It becomes Daryl's new-found purpose to forge a better future for the both of them. Nani's dealer, Iman, was once a drug dealing kingpin in Camden in the 1990's. He was also a father and factory man, until he caught a dealer's habit selling dope. His own quest to sobriety will eventually force the hand of Nani to make a change, as they forge parallel paths to recovery.
