“Choose your side carefully, because the only way out is the way of the gun.”

ActionCrimeDramaThriller

Two criminal drifters without sympathy get more than they bargained for after kidnapping and holding for ransom the surrogate mother of a powerful and shady man.

VIBE

A sun-baked, morally ambiguous crime thriller. It's a slow-burn descent into desperation, where every character is a loose cannon. Expect brutal gunfights and a bleak outlook on humanity.
