Inspiré d'un fait réel, ce court métrage de fiction fait la reconstruction dramatique d’un événement survenu dans un autobus alors que trois jeunes gens batailleurs tiennent des propos racistes à l'endroit d'une jeune Amérindienne et de sa mère, Rhonda. Celle-ci décide de réagir, le lendemain, lorsqu'elle constate à quel point sa fille se sent humiliée. Elle se rend à l'école et fait réaliser aux agresseurs la portée destructrice de leur geste en apparence anodin.
