Blindsided by the Walking Dead

SYNOPSIS 

From the drug-infested corners of one of Atlanta's worst housing projects, during the onset of the hip-hop explosion and crack epidemic, to navigating alleyways filled with ravenous "zombies," Blindsided by the Walking Dead examines how football and faith served as the vehicle for one man's battle to overcome the violence, drugs and crime of the 'hood and his rise to stardom; starting with a young IronE Singleton determined to succeed despite an abusive, drug-addicted mother, an absent father and the temptations of instant gratification inherent with the thug life.
