Tony (played by Viggo Mortensen) is a laid-back and idle thug who works as a waiter in a nightclub. This nightclub is going to be closed for several months for some reason, but the rent and living expenses Tony has to pay won't be cancelled as a result. So his top priority now is to find another job to fill the gap during these months. At this critical juncture, a black pianist named Tang Xueli (portrayed by Mahershala Ali) proposed to hire Tony. Tang Xueli was about to embark on an eight-week southern tour. However, at that time, discrimination against black people in the south was extremely severe. So Tony became Tang Xueli's driver and bodyguard. Along the way, the two people's very different personalities led to many conflicts between them. At the same time, the various unfair treatments Tang Xueli suffered in the south also made Tony detest racial discrimination deeply.[Collapse]
