Synopsis

My film begins from the perspective of the detectives life with a destructive past named John. John has not been the same since the night which changed his life forever which is made unclear to the audience about what that actually is. Because of this, John is let go from the detective agency, we are made known by this as he reveals it to us when he opens the letter he is holding.

Later that night John receives a call from an unknown number, he picks up and realizes it's from an old work colleague of his named Sam. Sam disappeared a few years ago from the agency and John had no idea why. Sam offers John a job and mentions to him how he knows that he does not have many other options otherwise he will lose his apartment. John reluctantly complies as he doesn't have any other options. The jobs involve assaulting and intimidating government officials who owe Sam's generous benefactors favors who they have apparently refused to uphold. John's detective instinct kicks in once he meets the character Sarah, someone else working for Sam who longs for a way out of this life. John and Sarah begin to investigate together and they soon discover that the 'benefactors' who they're working for seem to be using people like himself and Sarah not to scare officials in to upholding their favors, but instead to manipulate them to get Sam's benefactors in to power by supporting them. The films ends with a confrontation between Sam and John, ending with Sarah killing Sam as Sam is about to shoot John. The film ends without giving the audience any idea of John or Sarah's fate. (Similar to Se7en's ending).
