A Journey To Newfound Courage
Set in the
Summer of 1963, Flint, Michigan is home to the Watsons, a close knit
"All American Family" made up of Daniel and Wilona Watson, (Wood Harris
and Anika Noni Rose) and their three kids, 15 year-old juvenile
delinquent Byron (Harrison Knight), nerdy 11 year-old Kenny (Bryce Clyde
Jenkins) and eight year-old adorable sister Joetta (Skai Jackson). When
Byron's antics go over the top, his parents realize enough is enough
and they decide the family needs a dose of Grandma Sands (LaTanya
Richardson) no nonsense approach in Birmingham, Alabama. So the Watsons
load up the 1948 Plymouth Brown Bomber outfitted with a true tone
Ultra-Glide turntable and head South with plenty of comedy en route.
When they finally make it to Birmingham, they meet Grandma Sands and her
friend, Mr. Robert (David Alan Grier), who show them around town and
the Watsons discover that life is very different there than in Flint -
and not necessarily for the better. During that historic summer, the
Watsons find themselves caught up in something far bigger than Byron's
antics. Something that will change their lives and country forever.
