A modern day, mumblecore noir.

Simple and brutal, the film follows Assassin John Brown, a numbed out junkie and Iraqi War veteran. In the course of a botched hit, Brown meets a beautiful night club singer only to find she is entwined with the shadowy corporate executive who hired him. With the cops and the corporate goons closing in, Brown rediscovers a reason to live, but can he save the girl and himself in time?

The actors are all well cast. The film is full of extremely memorable and unique characters. John Brown (played masterfully by director Devin E. Haqq) leads his pursuers on a foot chase through Midtown Manhattan and the filmmakers pull off the kind of ballsy 1970's-style location shooting then even big-budget features rarely try these days.

A cinema verite love letter to the city of New York - The showpiece of the film. A hard boiled gem in the tradition of the French New Wave film that inspired it, Jean-Pierre Melville's LE SAMURAI.
