Internal Affairs

In the gritty streets of Los Angeles, the LAPD is a place where camaraderie and suspicion coexist like two sides of the same badge. The department’s reputation for tough, sometimes brutal policing creates an undercurrent of unease, especially when the line between protecting the public and protecting one’s own begins to blur. Against this backdrop, the film follows the uneasy balance of power, loyalty, and hidden motives that define the everyday reality of an urban police force.

Dennis Peck commands both respect and doubt among his colleagues, projecting the image of an exemplary officer while quietly navigating a complex web of personal ambition and secret dealings. Across the precinct, the newly assigned internal‑affairs investigator Raymond Avilla arrives with idealistic fervor, determined to uncover the truth behind recent questionable actions. Partnered with seasoned detective Amy Wallace, Avilla steps into a world where every conversation carries a double meaning and every file may conceal more than it reveals. Their presence threatens to upend long‑standing alliances and forces the department’s veterans to confront the fragile trust that holds the unit together.

The tone is taut and atmospheric, blending the procedural grit of a police drama with the simmering tension of a moral thriller. As the investigation deepens, the audience is drawn into a landscape of whispered rumors, strained loyalties, and the ever‑present question of who can truly be trusted when the very system meant to enforce the law is itself under scrutiny. The film promises a compelling look at power’s corrosive edge, setting the stage for a clash between entrenched authority and relentless pursuit of accountability.
