On the highway of life, Jerry's at a dead-end. Unemployed and still living at home with his parents, this thirty-three year old loser has no drive to better his life. That's all about to change. A fateful drug deal gone bad transforms Jerry overnight into the cop's number one murder suspect and the mob's number one target. With a sack full of drugs and a budding romance at stake, Jerry could get a life... or lose it. Either way, it will be the ride of his life.

She's Kathy, a comix cartoonist; he's David, teaching English to new immigrants. It's New York City, with 29 shopping days left until Christmas, and they're in love. Or are they? Their romance has been on-again, off-again because David can't bring himself to say, "I love you." He can say it in French, Russian, Japanese, Chinese, but not English. So, when she learns at an inopportune time that he's applied for a job in Ho Chi Minh City, she asks for breathing room until Christmas; the film chronicles the ensuing days of restless indecision.

Working together, these expert teams navigate all sides of the complex criminal justice system to make New York a safer place.
