Geschichte
Private investigator Keri Finnegan, burdened by her late father's reputation as a corrupt cop, becomes entangled in a web of murder and corruption while investigating a series of seemingly random crimes in a bad neighborhood. As she digs deeper, she discovers that these crimes are connected through a horrible secret, implicating not just the courts but also the cops. With no one to trust or turn to, Keri must navigate this dangerous labyrinth alone, risking her life to uncover the truth and potentially shed light on her father's past.
Zusammenfassung
Backstreet Justice is a neo-noir drama directed by Chris McIntyre and released in 1994. Starring a female lead, it's a rare gem that subverts traditional gender roles in crime dramas. The film centers around Keri Finnegan, a private investigator grappling with her father's legacy as a corrupt cop. Set against the backdrop of a seemingly endless spree of murders and general lawlessness, Keri finds herself drawn into an intricate web of corruption and deceit that permeates every level of society, from the courts to the cops. Despite its limited runtime and modest production value, Backstreet Justice delivers a gripping tale of perseverance in the face of systemic corruption.
