Slam tells the story of Ray Joshua, an original, gifted young MC trapped
in a war-zone housing project known as Dodge City. Unable to find a
job, Ray copes with the despair and poverty of his neighborhood by using
his wits and verbal talent.
This is a rough and ready film set in Washington, DC, which centers around the art of slamming and features acclaimed verbal stylist Saul Williams in the lead. The focus of this film is on the importance of knowledge being the key to your own wealth as opposed to the wrong track and yet the story doesn't wallow in sentimentality and become cheesy.
