99 Homes

A recently unemployed single father struggles to get back his foreclosed home by working for the real estate broker who is the source of his frustration. Around the world everyone knows that honest hard work gets you nowhere. In sunny Orlando, Florida, construction worker Dennis Nash learns this the hard way when he is evicted from his home by a charismatic, gun-toting real-estate broker, Rick Carver. Humiliated and homeless, Nash has no choice but to move his mom and nine-year old son into a shabby, dangerous motel. All is lost. Until an unexpected opportunity arises for Nash to strike a deal with the devil - he begins working for Carver in a desperate attempt to get his home back. Carver seduces Nash into a risky world of scamming and stealing from the banks and the government; he teaches Nash how the rich get richer. Living a double life, Nash hides his new boss and job from his family. He rises fast and makes real money; he dreams bigger. But there is a cost. On Carver's orders, Nash must evict honest families from their homes - just as it happened to him. Nash's conscience starts tearing him apart... but his son needs a home. In a dramatic high stakes climax, with a 1,000 home deal on the line, Nash will have to choose between destroying an honest man for the ultimate win or risking it all by going against Carver and finding redemption.

Desperate to get his house back, Nash goes to work for the wealthy and ruthless businessman Rick Carver - the very man who repossessed Nash's home. It is a deal-with-the-devil that comes with an increasingly high cost - on Carver's orders, Nash must evict families from their homes; in return, Nash is promised a lifestyle of wealth and glamour. Handy single father Dennis Nash always worked off his tail in construction in sunny Orlando, Florida, to provide for his equally doting son Connor and in-living mother, but gets laid off as the firm is bankrupted by the crisis. Unable to pay off his mortgage, he gets evicted by the bank's regular cahoot, charismatic, gun-toting real-estate broker, Rick Carver, who gets rich from such evictions. Seeing honest Dennis volunteering for a dirty job, he hires him regularly, for better-paid but less innocent jobs, trying to make inevitable evictions less hard for fellow victims. Dennis agrees only to buy back his home, but gets drawn in ever further, tasting the luxurious lifestyle, yet unable to turn off his conscience.
