Champion street dancer DJ Williams (Columbus Short) loses his brother who is killed in a street brawl that follows a dance contest in LA. Depressed and disoriented, he travels to stay with his Aunt Jackie (Valarie Pettiford) in Atlanta where he is accepted as a working student in Truth University , a prestigious learning institution attended by black Americans. At Truth U he is introduced to stepping a kind of dancing with African-American origins that has become a tradition in the campus He feels somewhat out of place at Truth U with its elite fraternities and the communitys expectations of professional success, but with his dancing talents and academic ambitions he becomes a sought-after dancer by the rival stepping fraternities, the Theta Nu Theta and the current champion the Mu Gamma Xi. He eventually gets attracted to April (Meagan Good ) who happens to be the girlfriend of Grant ( Darrin Henson ), Mu Gamma Xis star stepper. In time DJ wins April s heart and joins the Theta Nu Theta frat. Grant plots to have DJ expelled, digging into his past, unearthing a record of the brawl that resulted in his brothers death and reporting the discovery to the school authorities. The school president ( Allan Louis ), April s father, frowns on her romance with DJ and uses his office to nip it in the bud.
