Wild Card

“Wild Card” is a short noir style film that takes place around the poker table of one of the city’s most-wanted mob lords, Vinny Romano. Six others join him: his henchman, his wife, her not so secret lover, his not so secret lover, a cousin who owes him money, and a cop; all of them knowing that when Vinny invites someone to a card game, its not to play cards. They are there for a reason; not a good one. With so many differing players at the table, Vinny struggles to keep the power in his hand and things get out of control. In the end, its anyones game.
