Если вы хотите жить, вам не стоит соваться в лос-анджелесский квартал Южный Централ. Это очень опасное место, где обитают сплошь крутые черные парни — такие, например, как Тре и сводные братья Рики и Дагбой.Ежедневно варящиеся в этой адской кухне, заполненной насилием, невежеством и злобой, раю для наркоманов и убийц, они, кажется просто обречены пополнить ряды подонков общества и закончить свои дни с пулей в спине или со шприцом в вене.Но надежда вырваться из этого жуткого мира — и не ногами вперед — не покидает героев. Только вот Южный Централ не очень-то легко отпускает своих жертв…

Magyar
Fekete vidéknek hívják azt a területet Los Angelesben, ahol az állig felfegyverzett zsaruk az utcaképhez tartoznak, és egész nap köröznek a rendőrségi helikopterek. Aki élve kerül ki innen, annak nincs mitől tartania, az már mindent látott, mindent megtapasztalt. Tre Styles jó srác, itt nőtt fel, de nem rontotta el a környezete. Elege van abból, hogy vekkercsörgés helyett fegyverdörgésre ébred. És elege van abból is, hogy a legjobb haverjait látja összeesni egy-egy utcai tűzpárbaj során. Két barátjával elhatározza, kitörnek ebbol az ördögi körből. Ám fekete vidéken sötétek a kilátások.

Dansk
Tre venner vokser op i Los Angeles' barske forstæder, hvor vold og kriminalitet hører til hverdagens orden. Ricky (Morris Chestnut) er en dygtig fodboldspiller og prøver på den måde at komme ud af sumpen, mens hans halvbror 'Doughboy' (Ice Cube) overgiver sig fuldstændig til usunde fritidsinteresser som stoffer, forbrydelse og gadekamp. I midten står Tré Styles (Cuba Gooding Jr.).

טריי סטיילס הוא נער אפרו-אמריקני שעובר לגור עם אביו בגטו של לוס אנג'לס ונחשף לקשיי המחייה, לאלימות ולסמים שמאפיינים את שכונות העוני של אמריקה הלא-לבנה. הסרט כולו צולם בלוקיישנים אותנטיים והבמאי, ג'ון סינגלטון, שזהו סרט הביכורים שלו, השכיל להשתמש בתושבי השכונות עצמם גם כניצבים ושחקני משנה וגם כיועצים לענייני תרבות ושפה. אחד הסרטים האפרו-אמריקאיים החשובים ביותר.

Türkçe
Los Angeles gettolarında birlikte büyüyen üç arkadaşın öyküsünü anlatan film, kenar mahallede yaşanan olaylara içten bir bakış atmasıyla benzerlerinden ayrılıyor. Kardeş gibi Doughboy ve Ricky Baker birbirlerine benzememekle birlikte her an birlikte takılmaktadırlar. Üçüncü kişi ise Tre'dir. Üçlü şiddet ve uyuşturucunun konuştuğu mahallerinde kendilerini ispat etmeye çalışır. 90'lı yılların başında gettoda yaşayan siyah gençler arasında yükselen nefreti, şiddete olan eğilimi, doğasına yakın bir şekilde sunuyor film. Yönetmen bu filmi 23 yaşında çektiği için sinema dünyasının yeni dahilerinden biri olarak selamlandı ve henüz 24 yaşındayken Oscar ödülüne aday oldu.

Ο Ρίκι είναι αθλητής που πασχίζει να πάρει υποτροφία σε κολέγιο, ενώ ο Ντάρεν προτιμά το αλκοόλ, τα ναρκωτικά και τη βία. Ανάμεσα τους είναι ο Τρε, τυχερός που έχει έναν πατέρα να του διδάσκει τι είναι το σωστό και να είναι υπεύθυνος για τις πράξεις του. Η γειτονιά, όμως, είναι σκληρή και για τους τρεις.

Poetic JusticeDrama1993

Superstar Janet Jackson makes her stunning film debut in director John Singleton's (Boyz N the Hood) street-smart love story, POETIC JUSTICE. A mismatched pair pushed together on a road trip from South Central L.A. to Oakland, Justice (Jackson) and Lucky (Tupac Shakur) have only one thing in common: they can't stand each other. But as their friends Lesha and Chicago (Regina King and Joe Torry) fight and make up in the back of the van, Justice and Lucky find themselves reluctantly drawn together. After a surprising detour toward romance, the two travelers are confronted once again by the shocking violence they thought they'd left behind. Featuring the music of Naughty by Nature and Tony! Toni! Tone! and the poetry of Maya Angelou, POETIC JUSTICE is every bit as intense, original and unforgettable as Boyz N the Hood.
