Full synopsis
Synopsis: Ever been at an intersection where the next choice you make decides the rest of your life?
Jayson is a clever drug trafficker skirting the underworld of Bridgeport CT. After a big night of sales, he finally has enough to finish paying for college and is prepared to pursue a career as a writer.
As Jayson tweaks his prized screenplay Death at an Intersection, he receives a phone call from a childhood friend Mo. Mo just got robbed for four kilos of cocaine! Jayson is reluctant to get involved, but he owes Mo a life debt. Jayson must pay his debt if ever hopes to walks away from the drug game.
Pretty Ricky is a small time hustler with dreams of being a big-time drug dealer like his father. However, Ricky has, only managed to earn long trips to jail and a small nickel and dime operation in the local projects.
Jayson and Ricky team up and successfully takeover the drug game in Bridgeport CT. Their success is short lived as a local gangster Fatal goes on a killing rampage in a fit of jealousy. This killing spree comes to a head with the death of an undercover cop that brings down the law and stops business. Fatal now blood crazed targets Jayson.
The recent killings slow down business for Jayson and Ricky and force veteran homicide detective Jack Smith into fierce pursuit of all drug dealers.
Jayson must figure out how to keep his double life together long enough to pay back his life debt to Mo, save his new friend Ricky, and deal with Fatal before veteran detective Jack Smith locks him up for life.
If Jayson is going to survive, he cannot allow himself to be buried under the rubble of Bridgeport,
Connecticut’s notorious Father Panik Projects; like so many before him.
