99 Homes

In the wake of a crippling economic downturn, the streets of Orlando become a landscape of shuttered signs and whispered rumors about homes disappearing overnight. The film immerses the audience in a stark, almost hyper‑real version of the housing market, where sleek corporate offices sit beside cramped motels and the promise of the American dream feels dangerously thin. The tone is unflinching and urgent, a blend of social realism and personal drama that keeps the pressure of the crisis palpable in every scene.

Dennis Nash, a hardworking construction laborer and single father, is thrust into this unforgiving world when the roof over his family’s heads is taken away. He is forced to confront the stark reality that the very system he once built his life around now threatens to unmake it. His mother, Lynn, a devoted hairdresser, and his young son, Connor, become the emotional anchors that keep him grounded even as the walls around them close in.

Enter Rick Carver, a charismatic yet ruthless real‑estate broker who has turned the turmoil into a lucrative enterprise. Carver navigates the maze of foreclosures with a polished confidence that both mesmerizes and unnerves those around him. The uneasy partnership that forms between him and Nash creates a magnetic tension, pulling the protagonist deeper into a world where morality is measured in dollars and the line between survivor and exploiter blurs.

As Nash steps onto the side of a business that thrives on dispossession, the film asks quietly yet forcefully whether one can remain intact when forced to balance survival with conscience. The atmosphere is thick with the weight of choices yet to be made, setting the stage for a story that explores the human cost hidden behind polished contracts and cold, efficient transactions.
