The situation becomes more complicated when Rodrigo falls for Gaddis' sister, Valerie, drawing another player into the game.

VIBE

A slick, character-driven crime thriller that keeps you guessing. It's a game of cat and mouse where trust is a commodity and every move is a calculated risk. Expect witty dialogue and a palpable sense of tension.
