The NYC/LA based team making THE 109 are experienced feature film producers who also have a deep, street-level understanding of the "world" of THE 109, from the deadly traffic of drugs, gangs, human trafficking and cartel activity in the ugly underside of New York City's most corrupt police precinct to the dangerous lives of the Undercover Cops who infiltrate the darkest corners to take it down.
Based on actual events and set in the deceptively glittering world of up-scale Karaoke Clubs and the relentlessly dangerous world of the gangs and traffickers that feed the appetites of the streets, THE 109 brings the classic NYC crime drama/thriller into the 21st Century.
A hard-case, deeply flawed Undercover Cop leads an under-staffed Joint Task Force in an operation to infiltrate a mobster-run Karaoke Club that is suspected of drug sales, prostitution and connections to Human Trafficking. The op leads to a larger network of cartel narcos and a deadly psycho-sicario.
Slick Asian gangsters, naive, ill-fated Karaoke girls, corrupt cops, cartel bosses, deadly killers and head-banging cops weave through the intelligent, fast moving and utterly realistic script to an explosive climax where nobody walks away a winner.
The global market has always welcomed and rewarded realistic big-city crime drama/thriller movies, whether the setting is NYC, LA, London or Hong Kong. From Serpico in the seventies through to The Irishman today there has always been a large audience ready to pay to spend a few hours on the mean streets. It doesn't matter if the budget runs high or stays low -- smart, gritty, realistic urban crime films always do well. THE 109 slots perfectly into this respected and profitable genre.
