Synopsis
Former cop convicted of corruption, Dave Burke prepares the robbery of a bank. In search of accomplices, he calls on two henchmen, Slater, a racist white man, and Ingram, a debt-ridden black singer. The heist, although well planned, very quickly turns into a nightmare, poisoned by the hatred that Slater feels for his teammate.
