Plot

A freelance photographer with an insatiable thirst for adventure, Friday Foster (Grier) unearths a conspiracy to assassinate several prominent black political leaders. Friday Foster was originally a cartoon strip that ran from 1970 to 1974, and the film itself was one of the few collaborations of its kind between an American scriptwriter and a foreign artist.
