About

Ben Meadows (Jesse C. Boyd), visiting his home town in Texas for the first time in ten years, ends up in a coma following a car accident on the way home from his mother's funeral. When Ben wakes from his condition, his doctors realize he is suffering from amnesia. Ben's younger brother, Lee (Layton Matthews), takes him home to recover and it isn't long before Ben begins piecing his memory back together. In a bid to regain his now-lost past, Ben convinces Lee to travel with him to Los Angeles, California in an effort to track down their estranged father. Once in LA, the two discover that their father is not the same person they were hoping to reconnect with and find themselves falling deeper and deeper into a crime world they don't understand. In this gritty tale set in today's urban LA, two brothers come to the realization that some things are better left in the past where they belong.
