After the controversial verdict of the Rodney King trial, people were forced to take up arms to defend themselves and their families against the civil unrest and violence that was exploding onto the streets of Los Angeles in April of 1992. When faced with rampant looting, a Korean storeowner toils between protecting his wife and young daughter or taking a stand against the rioters who threaten to destroy his business. Amidst the multicultural collisions, April’s Way follows Sung-Min as he struggles to navigate racial and moral boundaries and ultimately uncovers the humanity within us all.
