Keith, a small-time drug dealer, is under house arrest at the home of his father in Baltimore. He re-enters a community scarred by unemployment, neglect and deeply entrenched segregation. There, he pushes back against his surrounding limitations as he tries to find a way out of his own internal prison.

Trivia, insights & behind the scenes
Shot in real Baltimore neighborhoods with locals as extras, blurring fiction and documentary. The 'Sollers Point' of the title is an actual road in Dundalk.
Director Porterfield cast Lombardi after seeing him in American Honey; this was Zazie Beetz's pre-Atlanta breakthrough. The film deliberately rejects redemption arc expectations.
