Vision Films Inc. ("Vision") announces the VOD and DVD release of Break Even on December 1, 2020. The full-length film from Director/Producer Shane Stanley (Gridiron Gang, A Time for Life) was executive produced by Scott J. Jones of Artis View Entertainment and produced with Adam Kane (Prodigal Son, American Gods, 24: Live Another Day). It will be available on streaming and cable platforms everywhere in the US and on DVD at major online retailers.
Drawn from a myriad of his own extraordinary life experiences, Stanley worked with screenwriter CJ Walley, (The Cable Guy) to create a feeling of nostalgia, shooting visual elements that represent past adventurous scenarios, while also incorporating the subtle human nuances that surrounded them. The film was shot entirely on location in and around Southern California, including on Catalina Island and in the unincorporated community of Llano.
Synopsis: While scuba diving, four friends seem to hit the jackpot when they uncover $50 million in cold hard cash. But the dirty money was planted by a crooked DEA officer working for a ruthless drug kingpin who wants the money retrieved at all costs. Wrapped up in a dangerous game of cat-and-mouse, the friends must outwit them both to make a clean getaway with the cash—and their lives.
