A controversial drama of racial tension directed by and starring Spike Lee, also starring Danny Aiello, John Turturro
It's the hottest day of the year in a racially-mixed district of New York, and Mookie is on his way to work at Sal's Famous Pizzeria, run for years by the same Italian family. However, some members of the black local population are angry that their neighbourhood is being run by whites and "foreigners", and what starts as a series of petty disagreements escalates into violence.
