Synopsis by Michael Betzold
This independent debut film for writer-director Chris Chan Lee follows the adventures of a group of eight L.A. teenagers on the last night before their high school graduation. Sin Lee (Michael Chung) can't join in the fun his friends have planned, because his parents are making him mind their grocery store. The store is robbed at gunpoint, and the thieves make off with $1,500. Sin tells his friends that his father won't let him go to college unless he gets the money back. The young men and women decide to find the thieves and the money, and spend a wild and dangerous night trying to recover the loot.
