Joe the King (1999)
In ärmlichen Verhältnissen wächst der junge, in sich gekehrte Joe Henry zusammen mit seinem Vater Bob, seiner Mutter Theresa und seinem Bruder Mike im New York der siebziger Jahre auf. Ständig von anderen gehänselt, wird Joe zum Einzelgänger, der schließlich aus einer Not heraus einen Raubüberfall begeht. Von seinen Mitmenschen verdächtigt und an die Polizei verraten, wird Joe schnell geschnappt und vor den Richter gestellt. Auch hier ist niemand bereit, für ihn einzustehen. Selbst seine Mutter, für die Joe alles tun würde, ist damit einverstanden, dass er für sechs Monate ins Jugendstrafgefängnis geschickt wird. Der Richter gibt Joe einen Tag, um seine Angelegenheiten in Ordnung zu bringen. Wird Joe sich rächen, oder wird er beweisen,was in ihm steckt?
