The film tells the story of a once-promising college athlete, his drug dealing brother and their ex-con friend who embark on an ill-fated heist. As each minute of their simple plan unfolds, the action spirals closer to a tragic conclusion. This production is the second feature film that Whitewater Films has brought to Washington State in the last two years and is one of 89 projects Washington Filmworks has approved through the standard funding assistance program. These productions represent an estimated $213 million dollar economic impact statewide since the Washington Legislature created Washington Filmworks in 2007.

“The production was based in Everett, where the combination of urban and rural settings within minutes of each other made for a very attractive production center and central location. Everett city officials were incredibly helpful. Their positive attitude and unbelievably proactive cooperation made the budget of our indie film go a long ways. With picturesque locations and solid film crews, the lure to shoot in the Pacific Northwest is strong, but it was the 30% incentive from Washington Filmworks that helped make an unbeatable case for filming in the state,” said producer Rick Rosenthal.

The Holiday Inn Downtown Everett was host to cast and crew during production. “It was a great experience and opportunity,” said Tina Nevarez, Entertainment Sales Manager for the facility. “The cast and crew stayed with us for a little over 2 months, and the film was great business for the Hotel, as well as many other companies in Everett. Since their stay we have been fortunate to have a commercial and TV show stay with us and look forward to welcoming additional crews. Our entire staff is now very knowledgeable of the needs of this industry. We really know how to take good care of them.”
