Fast Charlie

In a city that pulses with an unforgiving code of loyalty, every promise is a double‑edged token and every favor a silent debt. The streets hum with tension, a constant undercurrent of danger that makes even the mundane feel like a gamble. Neon signs flicker over back‑alley negotiations while shadows move with purpose, creating a backdrop where trust is the most valuable—and most fragile—currency.

Charlie Swift has built his reputation as a sort of “concierge” for the powerful, a fixer who can smooth over problems that most would never voice aloud. Calm, resourceful, and impeccably aware of how the underworld ticks, he navigates the fine line between service and survival. His confidence rests on a long record of getting things done, and his name is spoken with a mixture of admiration and caution among the city’s elite.

When a single misstep threatens to unravel the delicate balance he has spent years maintaining, Charlie finds himself forced to confront Beggar Mercado, a ruthless figure whose influence reaches into every corner of the criminal hierarchy. The stakes quickly rise beyond a bruised ego; his very life hangs in the balance. To stay afloat, he grudgingly aligns with the enigmatic Marcie Kramer, a woman whose talents and motives are as mysterious as the city itself. Their partnership hints at an uneasy chemistry, each bringing a unique edge to a situation that spirals beyond anyone’s control.

The film’s tone blends gritty realism with a darkly comic undercurrent, painting a portrait of a world where survival depends on quick wit, fragile alliances, and the willingness to outmaneuver forces that never sleep. As loyalty is tested and the line between friend and foe blurs, Charlie must rely on his instinct and the uneasy trust he forms with Marcie to navigate a perilous path that could either restore his standing or seal his fate.
