Sons of Anarchy takes place in a fictional California town (Charming). Faced with the relentless pressure from drug dealers and large land developers, an illegal motorcycle club with both black and white reputations rises up to resist - not only to protect themselves, but also to protect the peace of the town. The protagonist of the story, Jax Teller (played by Charlie Hunnam), is in a fierce ideological conflict. On the one hand, he loves his brothers, and on the other hand, he hopes that the club will completely get rid of the shadow of "illegality". Other major characters include Jax's naturally majestic mother and stepfather who serves as the club's chairman.
