Synopsis by Jason Buchanan

A desperate drug runner ensnared in the Brooklyn underworld takes one last shot at redemption by rescuing the heroin-addicted daughter of a wealthy businessman. Noname is a man with a troubled past, and no future in sight. He runs drugs for a group of psychotic veterans; a simple way of surviving for a man who's never amounted to anything. When a wealthy stranger offers Noname a healthy paycheck to conduct a dangerous urban rescue mission, the gruff criminal eagerly accepts. Noname's boss has hooked the businessman's daughter on heroin, and he's currently holding the girl in his heavily fortified hideout. The job won't be easy, but should Noname succeed in rescuing her, he vows to give up his self-destructive ways and finally do something meaningful with his life
