Suddenly, all communication shuts down in Compton as a mysterious foreign military force invades. However, the streets of Compton do not go down easily. The Community rises with Rocker as its center.  The churchgoers, mechanics, teachers, police, and even gangbangers rise together to survive and take back their street.

Can the South Central community reclaim its home and thwart the annihilation?
