Starring Denzel Washington, Jeffrey Wright, Ilfenesh Hadera
In the midst of a high-stakes corporate takeover, a music mogul receives a threatening demand—cough up an enormous ransom if he ever wants to see his son alive again. But when he realizes that it’s actually his chauffeur’s son that’s been seized, he’ll have to decide whether to go through with the exchange. Spike Lee and Denzel Washington join forces again for a NYC neo-noir reimagining of Akira Kurosawa’s classic thriller High and Low (playing at BMFI this fall).
