Mr. Brooks (Leonard Jackson) is an African-American barbershop owner who runs his household with an iron fist.
One day, however, Mrs. Brooks (Clarice Taylor) tires of his stern approach and embraces a nonconformist attitude that's more in line with that of their children, including the philosophical Booker T. (D'Urville Martin) and Gideon (Glynn Turman), a black militant.
Soon a battle of wills erupts in the Brooks household, and no one is going to readily back down.
