Summary
Innovative filmmaker Spike Lee brings to the screen a music-filled, offbeat, contemporary comedy that takes an unforgettable look at black college life. Amidst gala coronations, football, fraternities, parades and parties, the characters--"Dap" Dunlap, an intense student who encourages his buddies ("DaFellas") to fight for his beliefs; Julian "Big Brother Almighty" Eaves, out to strengthen the Greek system with his Gamma Phi Gamma fraternity brothers; "Half-Pint," driven to become a Gamma man; and Jane Toussaint, leader of the sorority, Gamma Rays--find themselves caught up in romance and relationships/rituals and rivalries during one outrageous homecoming weekend.
