The case forces the family to choose between their loyalties to one another and their loyalties to the department.

O’Conner is co-directing the film and told that the project is one he believes in. He stated:

‘My father was a New York City detective, and I grew up in that world. It’s a celebration of honest cops, which was everything my father was about. Though it is fictional, it is homage to my father.’

“Gavin O’Connor and his twin brother, producer Gregory, grew up as the sons of a New York City cop and developed this story together, along with Robert Hopes and co-scenarist Joe Carnahan.
