Summary: | Seriocomic look at African-American life on Ninth Street in Junction City, Kansas in 1968. Once booming "Jump City" has fallen on hard times, though the Vietnam War insures a steady stream of draftees from nearby Fort Riley to patronize Ninth Street's black-owned jazz clubs, bars, and businesses. Ninth Street is home to drunks and priests, club owners and pimps, hookers and cabbies. Holding court over this mix are two resident winos, Bebo and Huddie, who attempt to maintain the street's traditions and standards in the face of ruthless new muscle trying to move in.
