Stick

In a sun‑splashed stretch of Florida where the line between freedom and danger feels as thin as the horizon, one man walks out of a seven‑year sentence carrying both the weight of his past and a faint hope for redemption. The world he re‑enters pulses with hidden dealings and restless ambition, a place where old connections linger like ghosts and every encounter could tip the balance between a quiet life and the pull of the underworld.

Ernest “Stick” Stickley, a former car thief with a reputation for quick hands and quicker get‑aways, steps back onto the streets only to find himself thrust into a violent flashpoint that shatters any simple notion of a clean slate. The sudden loss of a close friend in that moment forces Stick to confront the reality that the shadows of his former life still stretch far beyond the prison walls, compelling him to stay hidden while the world around him tightens its grip.

A chance encounter with a flamboyant millionaire, Barry Braham, offers Stick an unexpected lifeline: a steady job as a personal chauffeur and a modest home that promises stability. Within this new sphere, he meets Kyle McClaren, Barry’s sharp‑tongued financial consultant, whose presence sparks a budding connection that feels both fragile and invigorating. Their growing intimacy provides a glimpse of the life Stick yearns for, even as whispers of his past begin to stir the air around them.

The film moves with a gritty, suspense‑laden rhythm, blending the sleek veneer of high‑society with the gritty undercurrents of the criminal world that refuses to stay buried. Tension builds not through overt action but through the ever‑present sense that the past is a relentless tide, ready to lap against the carefully built shoreline of Stick’s new existence. As the story unfolds, the audience is drawn into a world where loyalty, love, and survival hover in a delicate, electrifying balance.
