Synopsis
Howie, left emotionally adrift after his mother’s death and neglected by a father consumed by work in a New York suburb, spends his days with his friend Gary breaking into neighbors’ homes. Their petty criminality goes horribly wrong when they target Big John’s house — a macho ex‑Marine with a history of predatory behavior toward young people. After John makes an unsettling advance that Howie refuses, the three become entangled in a tense, dangerous and increasingly volatile relationship that drags them all into secrecy, violence and moral ruin.
