La bottega del barbiere (2002)
Calvin gestisce un negozio di barbiere nel south side di Chicago. Al suo interno vive quotidianamente un'umanità variegata: Eddie, un vecchio barbiere senza più clienti, Jimmy, anche lui barbiere e studente di college, Isaac (il nuovo arrivato), Ricky, un ex galeotto che sta tentando di rifarsi una vita, e Terri, una donna dal carattere forte che, però, non riesce a lasciare il suo fidanzato. Dal canto suo, Calvin ha ereditato dal padre questo faticoso mestiere ma dopo tanto lavoro, con i conti da pagare ed un figlio in arrivo, comincia a vederlo come un peso ed una perdita di tempo. Dopo aver venduto il negozio ad uno strozzino, tuttavia, il giovane comincia finalmente ad intuire la filosofia di vita del padre, la sua eredità morale, e la rilevanza sociale che il negozio riveste per il quartiere. E così iniziano i rimorsi. Calvin inizia a darsi da fare per rimediare il denaro necessario a cercare di ricomprare il negozio.
