“What happens when a kid finds a gun or a gun finds a kid?”
When troubled teen boy Stevie (Cameron Van Hoy) and his girlfriend, Rocky (Mischa Barton), attempt to rob a bank without any forethought, the situation rapidly deteriorates.

Daniel Bender (Burt Reynolds), a veteran negotiator for the FBI, is charged with assessing the crime scene and ending the standoff as quickly as possible, but Stevie's short fuse considerably complicates matters.
A raw, high-stakes thriller that plunges you into a desperate hostage situation. The tension ratchets up with every moment, fueled by impulsive decisions and the grim reality of consequences. It's a gripping, character-focused crime drama that feels uncomfortably real.
