Raymond St. Jacques both directs and stars in . St. Jacques and Philip Thomas play depression-era African Americans, barely making out an existence as waiters in a deep-south community. Both men decide that there's more money to be had on the shadier side of the law, so they set up a successful rural numbers racket. All goes well until the operation attracts the attention of white crime boss Gilbert Greene. Though no one is particularly admirable in , the audience remains firmly on the side of the black characters, if only by default. The film was based on a novel by Robert Dean Phaar.
