  Deep cover agent, RYDELL gambles with people's lives to prove loyalty, earning his way into the trust circles on a pills and powder trafficking sting. He's married to a sinking ship of addictions named MARCY, a recently retired adult filmmaker. They have a daughter named SHANDELLE, who is excelling in ice skating. The bonding Rydell forms with his Underworld crew puts not only his case in danger, but his marriage. Nothing means more to him than his family. Simultaneously in Tokyo, a secret Elders meeting discusses the fate of the Yakuza. The Boss of the most powerful region, KATODANZO, shocks the families by rejecting a divestment plan. The OG's hear him say that he is not who he was, but they are not buying this 'man of principal, crusader of women' talk. Katodanzo's wife, AMI SHIMADA MIKIMOTO knows the Assassins will soon be in their chimney. Katodanzo is retired. A grandfather with an estranged son, and ailing health issues, no doubt linked to killer's karma. Rydell becomes a liability, fearing extraction from the case, taking matters into his own hands with baffling chess moves. Katodanzo is determined to change the minds of Yakuza youth, however they are devout followers of hip hop, and the rhymes of KENJI NODICE.

  An incisive reflection on identity and wealth, and a refreshing racial queer story of survival
  		 
  All Things Seen and Unseen follows Alex Nguyen, an isolated, chronically ill university student in her early 20s. After a suicide attempt and subsequent lengthy hospitalization, she finds herself without a job, kicked out of campus housing, unable to afford school, and still struggling in the aftermath of a relationship’s dissolution. Hope comes in the form of a rich high school friend who offers Alex a job housesitting at her family’s empty summer mansion on a gulf island.
  		 
  Surrounded by dense forest and ocean, in the increasingly oppressive heat of a 2010s summer, Alex must try to survive as an outsider in a remote, insular community; to navigate the awkward, unexpected beginnings of a possible new romance; and to live through the trauma she has repressed to survive, even as the memories — and a series of increasingly unnerving events — threaten to pull her back under the surface.

  Noland Twice, a star athlete turned private investigator, can find anyone, no matter how far they run or how well they hide. He works the Orlando-Tampa corridor, a bizarre land where theme parks and tourists coexist with drug deals and crooked businessmen. When a shady local executive, Valkenburg, goes missing, Noland is the only man for the job. 
   
   
   
  Within hours of taking the case, Noland realizes nothing about this case is going to be easy, and he recruits his friend Kiril to help him with the dirty work when he finds a dead body. But the corpse isn't the missing man—it's the body of one of the partners of his construction firm. There's only one clue as to Valkenburg's whereabouts: a set of strange numbers hastily scrawled on the dead man's arm. 
   
   
   
  When Noland discovers that the numbers are a set of GPS coordinates, he follows the trail to a construction site. At the exact location inscribed on the body, there's a box buried in the dirt. Inside, he finds a handwritten journal—and a woman's severed head. 
   
   
   
  Propulsive and unpredictable, this gritty PI thrill ride races through a criminal world where nothing is ever as it seems.
