Boundaries and bonds are tested in this gritty crime-thriller drama about family, morality, and redemption.
Once-incarcerated Marcus Cowans (Omar Epps) is trying to turn over a new leaf with the support of his loving family.
Upon discovering that one of his brothers (Will Catlett) may have been involved in a horrific crime, Marcus grapples with the limits of brotherhood and loyalty.
He and his family, increasingly weary of the justice system’s failings, end up in the crosshairs of a seasoned but jaded detective (Michael Ealy).
Written and directed by Charles Murray, The Devil You Know evokes the question: Am I my brother’s keeper? And at what cost?
