During the Second World War, a special project is begun by the US Army Air Corps to integrate African American pilots into the Fighter Pilot Program. Known as the "Tuskegee Airman" for the name of the airbase at which they were trained, these men were forced to constantly endure harassement, prejudice, and much behind the scenes politics until at last they were able to prove themselves in combat.

Black pilots must fight for excellence in the cockpit while battling systemic racism within their own military ranks. This historical drama captures the exhausting dual struggle of proving worth in the sky and fighting for dignity on the ground.
