Staten Island

There's no such thing as the perfect crime.

Sully Halverson (Ethan Hawke) is a septic tank cleaner who is desperate to give his unborn son the chance he never had. Jasper Sabiano (Seymour Cassel) is a deaf-mute deli worker who wants to escape the mobsters that have infiltrated his life and business. Parmie Tarzo (Vincent D’Onofrio), is a local mob boss, who dreams of crushing the competition and becoming infamous any way he can.

These three men have two things in common they are all searching for better lives and they all live in Staten Island - the forgotten borough of New York City. Once their lives intersect, nothing will ever be the same.
