Greg Yance is caught with over 5 grams drugs on him for trafficking. Prison is overcrowded and violent. As first time felon, he can get 120 days of boot camp instead of 5 years prison. Boot camp's tough.

Inspired by the true story of Greg Yance. In the film, Yance (Epps) is a hood who goes to jail for possession of drugs. He is given a choice: 5 years in jail or a couple of months in boot camp. He chooses boot camp and finds out it is tougher than he thought it would be. He braves it through and comes home a better man. He then has to deal with the real world, and never gives up no matter what the odds.—Pat McCurry <[email protected]>
