American Badger (2021)

In the dark underworld of assassination, Dean, an unassuming name for a lethal hitman, is known as the American Badger. His moniker, a memento from his deceased ex-wife, reflects his reclusive nature, mirroring the solitary habits of the animal he's named after. For 4451 days, he has spoken to no one but his Handler, living as a mere shadow. However, an unusual assignment threatens to shatter his solitude. Tasked with infiltrating an Albanian gang, Dean's mission is to befriend Velvet, a call girl entangled in the gang's sinister web. Velvet is more than just a pawn; she's the mob boss Vasily's adored but abused surrogate daughter, a captive bird in a gilded cage. Dean, a stoic recluse unaccustomed to forging connections, must overcome his own reservations to approach Velvet. His introduction is awkward yet brave, marking the genesis of an unexpected camaraderie. Their relationship evolves, teetering on the precipice of an unlikely romance. But the idyll is shattered when his Handler delivers a chilling command – it's time to eliminate Velvet, Vasily, and the gang. Cornered, Dean embodies the ferocity of his namesake, a badger defending its territory, ready to fight to the death. What unfolds is a whirlwind of carnage, a predictable outcome for a man of Dean's profession. Yet, amidst the chaos, he empowers Velvet, bestowing upon her a sense of freedom and confidence that takes everyone by surprise. As the plot thickens, Dean is left to navigate a maze of duplicity, violence, and burgeoning love. His journey raises a poignant question: what happens when a solitary creature is pushed to its limit? The answer lies in the untamed heart of the American Badger.
