Da' Story (courtesy Rotten Tomatoes(TM)):
A switch at the adoption agency brings an Asian baby to an
African-American home, where the baby is accepted and brought
up accordingly. When the family relocates to South Central L.A.,
people see the grown-up teen as a "wannabe black kid" and he is
forced to think about what his true identity is.
