.45 (2006)

In the treacherous underbelly of New York City, the vivacious yet vulnerable Kat and her brutally domineering boyfriend, Big Al, peddle stolen goods and illicit firearms, carving out a precarious existence. Kat, a woman of striking beauty and formidable intellect, is ensnared in a toxic dance with Big Al, her love for him tainted by an addiction to their intimate entanglements. She harbors dreams of escaping this life, yearning for the serenity of the beach and the promise of a fresh start. When Big Al's possessive rage manifests in a violent outburst, leaving Kat battered and shaken, her trio of unlikely allies rally by her side. Vic, a woman whose affection for Kat transcends friendship, Liz, a dedicated social worker from a battered-women's program, and Reilly, who finds himself entwined in the dangerous triangle of attraction and repulsion towards both Kat and Al, all push for her liberation. As they encourage her recovery, they gingerly tiptoe around the idea of removing Al from the equation permanently. However, the specter of Big Al's wrath and Kat's complex dependency on him create a palpable tension. Al's chilling threat to mar her beauty if she dares to leave him, sends icy tendrils of fear wrapping around Kat's resolve. Yet, beneath the fear, Kat's cunning flickers like a stubborn flame. Armed with her potent allure and sharp wits, she begins to manipulate the chessboard of her life, hoping to outsmart Al and extricate herself from his clutches. In this intricate game of survival and desire, will Al's menace continue to cast long shadows? Or will Kat's strength and the support of her friends be enough to break free from the chains of their dangerous love? The streets of New York hold their breath, as the story of .45 unfolds.
