Hit Lady

In the sun‑blazed outskirts of Texas, a quiet barbecue turns into a momentary tableau of danger when Angela de Vries, a Los Angeles‑based contract killer whose reputation is as flawless as the bullet she fires, accepts a seemingly simple ride with a wealthy rancher. The brief encounter carries the weight of a carefully hidden agenda, revealing a world where high‑stakes professionalism meets the rough‑hewn charm of the Lone Star state. The scene is painted with a cool, almost clinical precision that hints at the deadly skill beneath her poised exterior.

Back in the city, Angela resumes the façade of a talented artist, a front as meticulously crafted as the contracts she fulfills. Her enigmatic benefactor, Roarke, appears in a sleek penthouse, offering what she hopes will be her final assignment—a job cloaked in the veneer of a routine accident. The exchange is charged with a quiet tension, a battle between the promise of a clean break and the unrelenting pull of loyalty to a shadowy patron whose influence extends far beyond the usual underworld.

Amidst the calculated detachment of her profession, Angela finds an unexpected tether in Doug Reynolds, an aspiring photographer whose own dreams are as delicate and vivid as the images he captures. Their relationship provides a stark contrast to her cold efficiency, offering glimpses of warmth, vulnerability, and a possible life beyond contracts. Yet every intimate moment is tinged with the lingering question of whether love can truly coexist with a past forged in secrecy and blood.

The film moves through a sleek, noir‑infused landscape where glittering cityscapes and expansive deserts collide, creating a mood that is simultaneously seductive and unsettling. Angela walks a razor‑thin line between the allure of a normal existence and the inexorable gravity of a career defined by precision and danger, leaving the audience to wonder which path she will ultimately choose.
