Synopsis

But things have changed since he’s been away. The local kids run round in gangs, terrorising the neighbours with drive-by shootings and random drug deals. Respect for the old criminal hierarchy is gone. And turning 40 inside hasn’t helped. His best years are behind him, future opportunities slipping away.
