Here’s what the distributor says about their film: After a 40-million-dollar heist from the Federal Gold Reserve, Edgar Clenteen (David Morse), an investigator with the U.S. Treasury Department is put to the task of finding the culprits and getting the money back. He starts with John Jaster (Robert Pastorelli) an accomplice in the crime who was caught, arrested, and jailed. However, when Jaster suddenly dies of a heart attack, Clenteen turns to his cellmate, Alvin Sanders (Jamie Foxx), who, entrusted with a secret message to deliver back to the criminals, becomes the “bait” to reel in the sharks.
