Starr Carter, 16 ans, vit entre deux mondes très différents : elle vient d'une zone résidentielle pauvre principalement habitée par des Noirs, mais fréquente une école privée pour élèves privilégiés, majoritairement blancs. Quand un jour elle voit son meilleur ami Khalil se faire tuer sous ses yeux sans raisons par un policier blanc, tous les efforts qu'elle a fait jusqu'ici fait pour s'adapter dans ces deux mondes très antagoniques sont réduits à néant.
