Staten Island, NY. The birth of Wu-Tang starts with a bang--literally.
Wu-Tang: An American Saga är inspirerad av ”The Wo-Tang Manual” och ”Tao of Wu” och baseras på den verkliga historian om Wu-Tang Clan. I 90-talets New York, vid höjden av kokain-epidemin, följer serien bildandet av klanen. En vision från Bobby Diggs, även kallad RZA, som drivs av att förena ett dussin unga, svarta män. De slits mellan musiken och brott, men blir så småningom den mest osannolika amerikanska framgångshistorien.
