Synopsis

An extremely depressed young woman, Shawn (Selma Blair) is literally on the brink of jumping from a high rise bank tower, when she is foiled by a robbery gone awry.

Charlie (Max Beesley) a bank robber, pursued by the police, flees to the rooftop and snatches Shawn from certain death in order to take her hostage.

She is decidedly not grateful!

Realising her refusal to go along with him, he proposes a strange deal, "Help me now and I'll kill you later.

Soon the unlikely couple is launched on a wild ride through the city streets, with the law in close pursuit and the future in serious doubt. They're looking for refuge, for a way out of town and especially for Charlie's partner in crime, Billy (Brendan Fehr), who's got the one million dollars from the bank heist.

What they find are some surprising revelations about each other and about the unpredictable nature of fate.
