Top of the Heap

Christopher St. John wrote, produced, directed, and stars in this unique, unsung blend of psychological thriller and Afrofuturist fantasy. George (St. John) is a police officer in Washington, D.C., who struggles to find his place both within the largely white institution of the force and within a Black community that distrusts cops. When he is passed over for a promotion, it pushes George over the edge, leading him on a violent personal crusade against criminals punctuated by feverish psychedelic dream visions.
