Set in Boston, this explosive crime drama follows the divergent careers of two Irish-American brothers, mobster Sean (Baldwin) and district attorney Thomas (Novak). Torn apart by personal and professional differences, the brothers find themselves uneasily aligned when Thomas is implicated in illegal fundraising with the Irish mob. Milton native Dan McCarthy, who wrote and directed the film, offers an affectionate yet dark portrait of the Boston Irish in which the shadows of Billy and Whitey Bulger loom large.
