1999, Claremont, California. Middle-class kids, in their 20s, talk
trash, wave guns, hang out in a pack. Johnny Truelove, drug dealer and
son of a underworld figure, threatens Jake Mazursky, an explosive head
case who owes Johnny money; Jake responds by breaking into Johnny’s
house. On impulse, Johnny and a couple pals kidnap Jake’s 15-year-old
brother, Zach. Zach’s okay with it, figuring his brother will pay the
debt soon. Johnny assigns his buddy Frankie to be Zach’s minder, and
they develop a brotherly friendship. Zach parties with his captors as
things begin to spin out of control. Group think, amorality, and fear of
prison assert a hold on the pack. Is Zach in danger?
