    Storyline

    Edit
    In a story of survival in an economically collapsed Detroit, a young woman named Isabel struggles to get by. All alone, desperately seeking work, and on the verge of eviction from her apartment, she hits the streets as a part of the world's oldest profession. Ashamed and tormented, she refuses to give up, having faith that hope and redemption are just around the corner. In a world growing smaller, and exponentially more dangerous, can Isabel find the strength to carry on? —Filmguy2010

    Retribution
    The film is dark, but the lead actor pulls off the gutsy performance brilliantly. I like ambiguity, but I wanted to know more about our protagonist. There are some amazing shots that really set the tone for a well made film about paying for the sins of the past.
