- Synopsis
- Master thief, Doc, and his wheelman, Bix, are interrupted in the midst of a bank vault robbery by an emergency call from Doc’s thirteen-year old niece, Louie.
  
  Doc and Bix race home to ‘Sugar Town’, a legendary brothel on the Arizona/Mexican border run with an iron hand by his mother, Louise (Lou). In the violent brawl that follows, Doc and his sister, Delia, nearly kill each other. Though horribly wounded, Doc manages to get Louie free, sending her to safety under the care of Bix and his family.
  
  Lou forces Doc and Delia into a restive truce. Business goes back to normal until Doc passes on a robbery that he deems too risky and Delia is forced to strike out. In the ensuing confrontation, Doc’s wife is accidently killed and his three-year old daughter, Rinthy, is taken hostage.
  
  Fifteen years later.
  
  Delia is being pressured by a powerful Drug Lord to sell ‘Sugar Town’ for use as a way-station for human trafficking, narcotic and arms smuggling. This brings the family operations under the scrutiny of Federal Agents, putting Doc and Delia, Louie and Rinthy, and the aged Matriarch, Lou, at war with each other.
  
  With a captive Federal Agent in tow, Doc, Louie and Bix battle attacks from Hit Men as they return to ‘Sugar Town’ for a final reckoning.
  
  Meanwhile, the strange mute, Rinthy, is building an army of women to wreck vengeance on them all for their sins …
