Vengeance: A Love Story

On the Fourth of July, after a late-nite lawn party, Teena Maguire (Anna Hutchison) and her twelve-year-old daughter Bethie (Talitha Bateman) stroll home in the moonlight under the glimmer of a few stray fireworks still popping in the air. They decide to take a shortcut through a popular hotspot Teena frequented in high school. It's a bad choice as they are met with a gang of thugs who violently, sexually assault Teena as Bethie watches in horror. First on the scene is Detective John Dromoor (Nicolas Cage), who met Teena just previously and made a connection. He is a widower and war vet and takes it upon himself to see justice made, especially after the gang hires slick, hard-knocking attorney Jay Kirkpatrick (Don Johnson), who seems able to clear the men.
