American History X (1998)
Dereks Leben ist geprägt von Hass - von rassistischem Hass, den er seit dem tragischen Tod seines Vaters fanatisch verfolgt. In seiner Clique aus Gleichgesinnten steigt er auf Grund seiner Intelligenz und seiner rhetorischen Fähigkeiten sehr schnell zum Anführer auf, unterstützt durch den Altnazi Cameron. Doch ein Gefängnisaufenthalt ändert seine Ansichten völlig. Während er sich dort vor Übergriffen seiner Kameraden schützen muss und zur Vernunft kommt, ist sein kleiner Bruder Danny auf dem besten Wege dahin, in den Nazisumpf abzugleiten und es seinem Vorbild Derek gleich zu tun.
