A Brentwood housewife and her DA husband - a Persian store owner - two police detectives, who are also lovers - an African-American television director and his wife, a Mexican locksmith, two car-jackers, a rookie cop, a middle-aged Korean couple and they all live in Los Angeles. And, during the next 36 hours, they will all collide. 'Crash' takes a provocative, unflinching look at the complexities racial tolerance in contemporary America. Diving headlong into the melting pot of post-9/11 Los Angeles, this urban drama tracks the volatile intersections of multi-ethnic characters as they struggle to overcome their fears while careening in and out of one another's lives. In the gray area between black and white, victim and aggressor, there are no easy answers.
