Homicide

In a city where the hum of traffic masks deeper currents of faith and doubt, Bobby Gold patrols the streets as a homicide detective whose instincts have long been calibrated to facts, procedure, and the sharp edge of justice. When a seemingly routine robbery‑murder lands on his desk, the case promises the familiar grind of evidence, interrogations, and the chase for a suspect. Yet the investigation quickly proves to be more than a simple procedural assignment; it becomes a portal into a hidden layer of the city’s cultural fabric, one that forces Gold to confront the part of himself he has kept at arm’s length.

Partnered with the seasoned Tim Sullivan, Gold navigates the delicate balance between camaraderie and professional hierarchy. Their dynamic, built on decades of shared precinct life, provides both a anchor and a contrast as Gold’s personal history resurfaces. The detective’s Jewish background, a detail once peripheral, is thrust into relevance by the very nature of the case, prompting colleagues to suggest his heritage might grant him a unique perspective. This suggestion unsettles Gold, who is simultaneously drawn to, and wary of, the expectations that accompany his identity.

As the investigation unfolds, late‑night conversations with members of the local Jewish community become a quiet catalyst for an inner reckoning. Through these encounters, Gold feels the pull of a spiritual curiosity that has long been eclipsed by the demands of his badge. Questions of loyalty, belonging, and the true meaning of justice begin to surface, challenging the hardened detective to weigh the law he enforces against a burgeoning sense of personal truth.

The film drifts between gritty procedural realism and meditative introspection, creating a tone that is as much about the streets of the city as it is about the shadowed corridors of the soul. Bobby Gold stands at the crossroads of duty and awakening, his journey promising a tense, thought‑provoking exploration of how far a lawman will go when the case he pursues forces him to examine the very foundations of his belief.
