The story of race relations in Chicago during the 1950s. A black American family is torn between a mother's pursuit of the middle-class dream and her son's desire to begin a new life. A $10,000 insurance benefit creates conflicting dreams within a Chicago family. Son, Walter Lee wants to start his own business while his mom wishes to spend her days in a little house of her own. Their love a bond, their warmhearted humor a breath of air, their tentative hold on dignity: their lifeline. A family caught between the reality of their surroundings and a chance at a piece of the American Dream.
