A small-time car stereo thief weasels his way into intercepting a high-stakes drug deal. The job seems simple and easy, but he soon encounters double-cross upon double-cross, merciless drug kingpins, and a mysterious female thief. This beautiful, glossy, neo-noir, fast-and-furious action thriller explores the seedy, dangerous underbelly of East Vancouver, and ultimately unspools a tale of the inexorable hand of fate.

Ah, the term "Middlemen" of which I have personally been one in fintech as the core architectural founder several times.
Given that much of technology originates and is perfected by the adult content industry, for those unaware, payments is no exception to this rule just as live video and audio software development was directly impacted from this adult content demand. It is claimed that sex sells and I can attest 100% to this claim being correct as a movie was even made about the payment system I was foundational in building and that movie was ironically called "Middlemen". I was younger then and the personal stories from those days I carry could have a great mini series created.
