In a city ravaged by violent crime,
the police department's anti-gang task force uses
any means at its disposal to get the bad guys off
the streets, with cops often acting as judge, jury
and executioner. As the unit's self-justifying brutality
and corruption spiral further out of control, gang
member-turned-cop Armando Sancho begins to question
the life he and his partner Salim Adel have chosen.
So when Internal Affairs agents investigating the
division's abuses offer him a deal to come clean
about the unit's misdeeds, Sancho must decide whether
to heed his conscience or his loyalty to his fellow
officers. On the hot, smoggy day Salim and Sancho
are scheduled to testify to IA, the two rogue cops
agree to run a lucrative, illegal operation for
the station's top brass. As their increasingly bloody
mission takes them from one end to the other of
the sprawling city they've sworn to protect and
serve, Salim and Sancho learn that getting clean
isn't nearly as easy as being dirty.
