    • Synopsis
    • Dane Jensen (Gerard Butler) is a hard-driven Chicago-based headhunter, working at a cut-throat job placement firm. When Dane’s boss (Willem Dafoe) announces his retirement, he pits Dane against Lynn Vogel, Dane’s equally driven, but polar opposite rival at the firm, in a battle for control of the company.
      As Dane gears up for the professional battle of his life, he learns his 10-year-old son is diagnosed with cancer.
      Suddenly, Dane is pulled between achieving his professional dream and spending time with his family who need him now more than ever.
