After twentyfive years in prison, Foley (Samuel L. Jackson) is finished
with the grifter's life. When he meets an elusive young woman named
Iris (Ruth Negga), the possibility of a new start looks real. But his
past is proving to be a stubborn companion: Ethan (Luke Kirby), the son
of his former partner, has an ingenious plan and he wants Foley in. The
harder Foley tries to escape his past, the tighter he is ensnared in
Ethan's web of secrets, until it becomes all too clear to Foley that
some wrongs can never be made right.
