"Fresh" is a 1994 American crime drama film written and directed by Boaz Yakin in his directorial debut, and produced by Randy Ostrow and Lawrence Bender. Scored by Stewart Copeland of The Police, it follows a pr***en boy named Michael, nicknamed Fresh (Sean Nelson), who runs drugs for gangsters. Inspired by his alcoholic father's (Samuel L. Jackson) chess lessons, Fresh devises a plan to save himself and his drug-addicted sister (N'Bushe Wright). Though marketed as a hip hop 'hood film and initially unnoticed, it received critical acclaim for its realistic depiction of life in NYC's projects during the crack epidemic.🖤🎬🎥
