Summary:
Calvin never wanted to take over the family business, a barbershop on the south side of Chicago. One morning he decides to sell the shop to a shady loan shark named Lester. Calvin spends the day cutting heads at the shop, and starts to understand the importance of the legacy left to him. Calvin learns to appreciate his barber friends, and discovers that the place where they work is more than just a place to get a haircut. Calvin gradually changes his mind about selling the shop, but it may be too late.
