In the heart of a sprawling metropolis, a sweeping new anti-crime initiative turns the city upside down, and two strangers find their lives violently colliding. John Cho stars as Ethan Park, a dedicated family man and small business owner whose world shatters when he is mistakenly identified as a kingpin in the city's crackdown. His desperate fight for freedom intersects with the journey of Maya Cruz, played by Melissa Barrera, an ambitious rookie detective who begins to uncover disturbing flaws in the very system she swore to uphold. As the net of the city's aggressive new policies tightens, Ethan and Maya are forced to navigate a labyrinth of bureaucracy, prejudice, and their own moral convictions. This gripping, socially charged thriller from director Destin Daniel Cretton builds a tense atmosphere of paranoia and urgency, exploring the human cost of justice when the line between protector and persecutor becomes dangerously blurred.
