Based on a true story, and set in Los Angeles around 1949. A ruthless mob king runs the show in this town, reaping the ill-gotten gains from the drugs, the guns, the prostitutes and more. He does it all with the protection of not only his own paid goons, but also the police and the politicians who are under his control. It's enough to intimidate even the bravest, street-hardened cop... except, perhaps, for the small, secret crew of LAPD outsiders, who come together to try to tear his world apart. They operate outside the law, fighting fire with fire.

Comments
This film has a strong impact due to complex and mature themes of crime, relationships, gang violence, power, greed, honour and organised crime. Strong elements of violence and language also contribute towards the strong impact of this film, making it unsuitable for viewers under 16 years of age.
