Synopsis

Ethan Hawke battles to make it big in the shadow of Manhattan in writer
James DeMonaco's debut feature.
The lives of three men with their eyes on a bigger prize tragically intersect
when blue-collar worker Sully Haverson decides to rob the safe
of smalltime mob boss Parmie Tarzo to give his soon-to-be-born child
a hope of a better future. Desperate to be remembered for something,
Tarzo campaigns to save Staten Island Forest while deaf-mute
deli worker Jasper Sabiano disposes of the victims of the mob boss's
shadier activities.
Hard-hitting writer James DeMonaco (The Negotiator, Assault on
Precinct 13) steps behind the camera and casts two-time Oscar
nominee Ethan Hawke (Lord of War, Training Day) opposite Vincent
D'Onifrio (JFK, Full Metal Jacket) in a duo that will make sparks fly.
Hollywood veteran Seymour Cassel (Academy Award nomination for
Faces) co-stars.
