Enredo

A young, fiercely independent Army Private is thrust into a work-camp stockade where he discovers the value of friendship and loyalty in the face of a dangerous enemy from a dynamic group of black prisoners.

Charlie Sheen, Martin Sheen and Laurence Fishburne star in this humorous and powerful story of a defiant, young soldier who discovers the value of friendship in the face of a dangerous enemy. When the rebellious Private Bean (Charlie Sheen) lands himself in an army stockade, he finds that all of his new roommates belong to a tightly-knit club that he can never hope to join. They are black, and he is clearly not. Headed by a street-wise leader named "Stokes" (Laurence Fishburne), this five-man "Soul Patrol" harbors a wary distrust for Bean that gradually gives way to mutual respect and acceptance. But the tough, bigoted stockade commander (Martin Sheen) is violently opposed to Bean's new alliance. And now, the once independent Private must stand together with his fellow prisoners against an officer whose personal war threatens to kill them all.
