Dennis is sick of his dead-end life in one of Brooklyn's toughest housing projects. Seizing an opportunity to get rich quick, he convinces his two best friends to help him rob the local drug lord. Amazingly, the plan goes off without a hitch, leaving these urban Robin Hoods thinking they’ve got it made until a life-altering event proves to Dennis that the only way out of this urban war zone is either in an honest day's work or a body bag!
