Steel Toes is a 2006 film directed by David Gow and Mark Adam, and starring David Strathairn. It was filmed in Montréal, Quebec, and was produced by Galafilm. The film was based on writer/director David Gow's play Cherry Docs.
Danny Dunkleman (Strathairn) is a Jewish humanist and a lawyer who works for the court system in Canada. He is assigned to defend Mike Downey (Andrew Walker), a member of the Aryan Brotherhood who is accused of a brutal, racially motivated murder. Behind prison walls, the two have a clash of ideologies as Dunkleman attempts to put his professional beliefs before his personal beliefs, and his client clings to his hateful beliefs.
