Troy, Mad Dog, and Diesel are three criminals fresh out of jail who are in desperate need of some cash. When a Mexican mob boss offers them a very suspicious job, the trio accepts it, being aware of risks involved. All they have to do is to kidnap the son of a con man who has been ripping the mob boss off. When the kidnapping goes awry, ending in a death, they turn into pariahs in the criminal underworld and find themselves as the most wanted fugitives in Los Angeles. Yet they vow, no matter the cost, to never go back to prison. Directors' Fortnight at Cannes, 2016.
