Danny Trejo runs a CIA cell in Milwaukee while a broken man hunts briefcases for revenge.
Two briefcases with mysterious contents are stolen from top Presidential candidate Squire Parks, setting off a deadly series of double-crosses and betrayals. Desperate warring factions of subterranean organizations will stop at nothing to gain possession of the sensitive material. A covert branch of the CIA calls on notorious Black Ops agent Stanley Cashay, who has been barely existing in a semi-comatose twilight since the murder of his wife. Cashay is offered the identity of his wife’s killer in exchange for locating and returning the cases.

Trivia, insights & behind the scenes
Made for roughly $50,000, this became a calling card for Milwaukee's underground film scene and Frankie Latina's later work with Soderbergh.
Mark Borchardt of 'American Movie' fame plays Dallas Deacon — the casting is a wink to anyone who knows Wisconsin cinema history.
