Player Hating: A Love Story, follows hip hop artist Half-a-Mill and his Brooklyn crew, The Godfia Criminals, as they struggle to launch Half’s first album in an effort to attain wealth, success and recognition through music. Through the eyes of an urban poet and philosopher, Player Hating reveals the tragedy of living in a violent community, abandoned by government and maintained through humor, dignity, and the sheer will to survive. Player Hating delves intimately into the lives of young “thugs” and takes the viewer into an underground world of poverty, gangs, violence and music that most audience members have an inkling of, but few rarely see—unless they’ve lived it.
