Delman Moore's Steppin Back takes place on a University campus and looks at the subculture of African-American Greek fraternity life. Early in the film a student commits suicide. This triggers the many Black fraternities on campus to take a look at what sort of behavior they are encouraging in their members. The houses organize a Step-show in order to do some good in the wake of the tragedy. The film touches upon the history of Black fraternities in the United States.

Hotel manager Robert Grant is forced by his boss to postpone his family vacation when a hotel critic checks in. Trouble is, the critic is really a villainous jewel thief with an orangutan assistant named Dunston. When Dunston gets loose and tries to escape a life of crime -- aided by Robert's sons -- havoc, hijinks and lots of laughs abound!
