Charles Jr. who has never gotten a chance to be raised by his father who has been in and out of prison his whole life. He leans on his mother for guidance and the ways of manhood. Charles Jr.’s father has left him a box which is to be given to him by his mother when he becomes a man but little does the young man know that the time to step up to manhood comes sooner than expected when his father is killed in prison. This short film will teach young boys to follow their own road to Manhood rather than follow those men in their family who have taken the lesser road of becoming a man. Every man makes a life altering decision for their life by circumstance or by choice.
