Marcus, played by Gbenga Akinnagbe, emerges from prison into a Brooklyn that's both familiar and alien. The film has this palpable tension, a sense of urgency that keeps you on edge. The pacing is deliberate, allowing you to really feel Marcus's struggles as he navigates the bureaucracy just to get a driver’s license.
