PlotMax, a meticulous Los Angeles taxi driver with aspirations of starting his own limousine company, picks up Annie Farrell, a prosecutor working on a major case.

The night takes an unexpected turn when a seemingly routine fare introduces Vincent, a suit-clad businessman with a chilling agenda. He offers Max a lucrative deal to be his personal chauffeur for the night, shuttling him between multiple stops around the city.
As their journey begins, Max quickly discovers that Vincent is not a businessman but a cold-blooded hitman carrying out a series of contracted killings. Caught in a dangerous situation he cannot easily escape, Max must navigate through the perilous streets of the city, trying to keep both the law and Vincent's targets at a safe distance, while also seeking a way out of his nightmarish predicament.
