Steel Toes
Feature Film
Directed by David Gow & Mark Adam
Canada, 2006, 90 minutes, English

A Canadian skinhead is accused of a brutal hate crime murder. His
court-appointed attorney, Oscar nominee David Strathairn (Good Night and
Good Luck), happens to be Jewish. The tense, sometimes explosive interaction
between these two wary adversaries who are forced to cooperate with each
other eventually leads to understanding and respect, but at a high personal
price. "Steel Toes is a powerful and provocative exploration of the
inescapable and insidious presence of racial and religious intolerance in
our
society."
