PlotA group of corrupt cops and criminals, led by Michael Atwood, execute a meticulously planned bank heist, securing a safety deposit box containing evidence against a Jewish-Russian mob. The gang, including Marcus Belmont and his partner Franco Rodriguez, orchestrate the robbery with precision, but find themselves under pressure from Irina Vlaslov, the ruthless head of the mob, who demands another high-risk job as payment for their services. During the fallout from the initial heist, Chris Allen, a new and idealistic police officer, is partnered with Marcus and becomes unwittingly entangled in the conspiracies and corruption within the force.
As tensions rise and loyalties are tested, Marcus is tasked with eliminating Chris to clear the way for their next big score. Meanwhile, Detective Jeffrey Allen, Chris's uncle, investigates the string of crimes, unknowingly closing in on his nephew's new partner. The treacherous stakes escalate as Michael and his team plan an audacious operation that pushes them to their physical and moral limits, leading to inevitable conflicts and showdowns. The narrative unfolds with intense action sequences and a deeply interwoven tale of betrayal, greed, and survival that exposes the dark underbelly of law enforcement and criminal enterprises.
