Revenge is awesome.
In the mid-nineteen sixties, the gang structure of
Philadelphia is similar to the feudal systems of old. Marissa
Wells, a young black catholic, is caught up in that structure. Her
allegiance to the gang forges enemies and perpetuates deep-rooted
hatreds that culminate in her brutal rape, and she’s left to die.
However, Marissa is a survivor and she retaliates. Regrettably,
her vengeance goes awry, leaving her enemy alive but wounded, setting
into motion an unrelenting resolve for revenge. Years later, thinking
her violent adolescence is history, Marissa soon realizes her past is
being revisited when one of three men begins to stalk her. Is it
the man she tried to kill, the man she threatened to have killed, or the
man she shamelessly humiliated? Not content to destroy only Marissa,
her nemesis goes after her family. Marissa realizes she has lost her
edge, and to save her family, she reverts to her old ways. She
sets herself up as bait, knowing it will mean the forfeiture of her
life, but what choice does she have. After all, it’s now clear to
her, revenge never ends until all the players are dead.
