Descarrilados (off the Rails) (2005)

In the heart of Chicago, Charles 'Chaz' Schine, a beleaguered advertising executive, finds himself ensnared in the relentless demands of his ailing daughter's medical needs and the emotional strain of his strained relationship with his wife, Deanna, a tired teacher. With their entire life savings on the brink of extinction due to Amy's costly experimental diabetes treatment, Chaz's existence is a grim cycle of frustration and despair. A glimmer of excitement appears on the horizon when he meets the beguiling investment adviser, Lucinda Harris, on the daily commute. An innocent act of her paying for his ticket soon spirals into a clandestine affair, their immediate spark igniting into a blazing inferno of passion and deceit. Yet, their illicit rendezvous at a seedy hotel takes a horrifying turn when they fall prey to the brutal thug 'Frenchie' LaRoche. In the blink of an eye, their lust-fueled tryst is shattered by violence and violation, leaving Chaz battered and Lucinda violated. Fearful of the scandal that could erupt from their secret affair, Chaz agrees to Lucinda's plea not to involve the police, leaving them at the mercy of their assailant's ruthless blackmailing scheme. As the demands for hush money escalate, Chaz seeks the aid of the rough-around-the-edges office mail boy, Winston Boyko. But when their plan to scare off LaRoche ends in bloodshed, Chaz is plunged deeper into a vortex of crime and corruption. The shocking revelation that Lucinda's identity is a sham, a cog in an elaborate criminal setup, leaves Chaz reeling. With no legal recourse available and his funds depleted, he embarks on a dangerous path of retribution, triggering a domino effect of bloodshed and unexpected turns. Amidst the chaos, Chaz is left to navigate the treacherous waters of deceit, betrayal, and vengeance, as his life spirals out of control in this thrilling tale of intrigue and suspense.
