The Line
Salazar (Andy Garcia, Academy Award® nominee*, The Godfather Part III ), the sick and dying leader of Mexico's powerful Salazar Cartel, has passed the reigns to his violent and unstable second in command, Pelon, sparking an internal struggle for power and control. Pelon goes against Salazar's advice and attempts to make a deal with Afghani Terrorists and give them access to the U.S. smuggling routes in exchange for heroin. When the U.S. finds out about the deal, they put out the biggest contract since Pablo Escobar. Mark Shields (Ray Liotta, Goodfellas), a professional U.S. assassin, descends into the gritty and dangerous world of Tijuana to track and kill Pelon. While there, his demons catch up with him and he is forced to deal with the psychological effects of his violent past. In a city where violence is the only law, Salazar, Shields and Pelon inevitably collide in this non-stop, action filled ride of twists and turns, loyalties and betrayals, of life and death.
