Plot: Four students drag a black student through the woods. They hang a noose on a barren tree and lynch him. It is October 2008. Downtown, Detective Haven (Louis Gossett Jr.) and FBI Agent Long (Keith David) interrogate four students about the lynching: Rose Torrance (Davetta Sherwood), Garret Perrin (Matthew Koenig), Valerie Davis (Danielle Fishel), and Hazem Seif (Ibrahim Ashmawey). In the backdrop of the presidential election, a group of college students find themselves embroiled in violence. What began as isolated incidents of nooses hung on campus escalates into blatantly racist fraternity parties and, ultimately, a series of racially-instigated murders. In a consciously-shifting society, where modern-day racism and racial tensions have seeped into all cultures - white, black, Middle Eastern, Asian - the characters come to the harsh reality that there are no "sides" in life, and that if pushed far enough, everyone is racist.

Quotes:
Alexander Kraus: No one tells us to feel this way. We feel it on your own. It's not media that draws stereotypes. Television only mirrors reality. It's our experiences that tell us that there are good and bad people. And now I'm telling you. I'm telling you everything that you think but won't say.
Tim Davis: Hazem. That's an ethnic name, isn't it?::Hazem Seif: Depends on where you're from.::Tim Davis: You're from the Middle East right?::Hazem Seif: I'm from Jersey. Hoboken.::Tim Davis: Jersey? So... you're Italian then?::Hazem Seif: I'm from Hoboken.::Tim Davis: Have a seat, just... not on the couch. So, what do you study Hazem?::Hazem Seif: You have a beautiful home by the way.::Tim Davis: Yes, thank you. I want to keep it that way.
Professor: The Ku Klux Klan. Does anyone know what that name means? The Ku Klux Klan? No one knows?::Valerie Davis: It's Greek. Kuklos. It means the circle.::Professor: Yes, that's one version of the story. Another etymology proposes an onomatopoeia. Ku Klux Klan. It's the sound of a cocking rifle. You see racism is rooted in violence. And violence is rooted in racism.
Tremayne Torrance: Come to the protest.::Garret Perrin: Hey man what is this?::Tremayne Torrance: Some punks at the Kappa house are throwing this bullshit racist barbeque...::Rose Torrance: It's an event held to mock and disrespect black culture. We're holding a demonstration to voice our disapproval and spread awareness that this is blatant discriminatory racism on campus.::Garret Perrin: Wow. English major?
Valerie Davis: Fine. Have it your way then. I'm just going to go to that frat party.::Hazem Seif: Valerie, why would you go to that party?::Valerie Davis: What, I can't handle going to a party without you?::Hazem Seif: It's messed up. It's a ghetto themed party!::Valerie Davis: No it's not! Where are you getting this?::Hazem Seif: Did you even see the fliers?

Plot: Tim Davis, an American soldier from San Pedro (CA), has recently returned home from the war in Iraq. He is set to deliver a motivational speech for recruiting purposes at a career day in his old high school. However, there is a conflict of conscious: diagnosed with post-traumatic stress disorder, Tim struggles with the reality of integrating with civilian life as much as with returning to the war zone. Davor Skalko, a Croatian refuge from the city of Vukovar, which was under siege for months during the Yugoslavia war, is running late. He is the driver who is supposed to take Tim to the ceremony. Before Davor's arrival, Tim receives a letter from the Army headquarters that announces his call back to duty. The two are opposites: Davor is laid-back and cynical, while Tim is sensitive and intensely self-critical. It's the wrong day for Davor to display his proverbial sense of humor. While trying to get to the school in time for the ceremony, his sarcasm targets Tim's uniform, soda flavors and the cult of celebrity that permeates L.A. Tim takes him too seriously from the very first moment and every beat of their journey displays the clash of personalities. "Have you ever heard about Vukovar?" takes the audience into the car with these two characters through the alienation of present day Los Angeles and into the emotional rollercoaster that Tim and Davor are forced to take together. They will learn that, even if they come from opposite ends of the world, they have a life-changing experience in common: war and its aftermath. Through their struggle to get to the ceremony Tim and Davor will form an unexpected bond that will change their lives.

Quotes:
Lieutenant Elwood Forbes: Sorry to bother you, but I understand you told one of my men earlier about a guy in here buying guns and ammo. Could you tell me what he looked like?::Gun Shop Owner: Like I told the officer on the phone, I don't pay attention to how my customers look.::Lieutenant Elwood Forbes: Can't you try to remember?::Gun Shop Owner: Well, he was a big man. Short hair, nice looking.::Lieutenant Elwood Forbes: Did you know him? Have you ever seen him in here before?::Gun Shop Owner: Like I told the officer who called, I don't pay attention to how my customers look.::Lieutenant Elwood Forbes: Don't you think it's strange? A man walks in here and buys a high-powered rifle, a shotgun, and enough ammunition to start World War III? Wouldn't that make your attention?::Gun Shop Owner: Look Lieutenant, I don't choose the customers! If a man walks in here and wants a weapon, we sell him one. If he wants two, we sell him two. There ain't no law against that.::Lieutenant Elwood Forbes: Yes, but did you by any chance get him to sign the registration form for the purchase of the weapons?::Gun Shop Owner: Of course. That's the law.
