The Finger Points background

The Finger Points

A journalist's probe into organized crime leads to a groundbreaking exposé, but also sparks a police crackdown and a perilous personal struggle.

A young journalist from the South lands a job with The Press, only to find himself in a world of corruption and danger. His first assignment on gangsters leads to a raid, a hospital stay, and a harsh reality check. Instead of reporting the truth, Lee turns to a life of paid silence, using his position to extort money from the very gangsters he was supposed to expose. But when he falls for a woman who demands he quit his illicit ways, Lee must choose between his career and his conscience.
