Synopsis: In this suspenseful Canadian thriller, Lance, a once successful rock and roll musician turned vigilante killer, has never denied his guilt…but knows now he could've handled things differently. With dwindling hope after two years in prison – and three life sentences ahead of him – the BC guitarist seizes his one opportunity for a life out of chains. With the help of loyal friends – straight-laced Reg and ex-druggie Jenny – Lance busts out of the Vancouver prison and begins his cross country journey with Jenny to New York City, where her street-wise Uncle Dusty will provide a safe hiding place, fake IDs, and a plan to get across the Mexican border. However, it isn’t long before Jenny’s bad habits resurface, bringing heat on them both. They lose Dusty as an ally, and in a strange country with Feds and gangsters on his tail, Lance is forced to lead the rapidly deteriorating journey south. As danger mounts, Lance realizes the bitter truth: that freedom, whether he deserves it or not, might always be out of his reach.
