Richard Rent, a volatile LAPD cop, and Joe Thomas, a boarding schoolteacher, become targets of the city’s corrupt political machine and are forced to flee to Mexico. In the humid jungles of the country’s Pacific coast, an unexpected affair unfolds. As passion turns to reckoning, both men must confront the violence they fled and the illusions that once defined who they were – and who they fear they might become.
