Plot: To one person in particular, the art of betrayal is the bittersweet moment when you finally get your revenge and he has spent his life mastering that art. Chase Jr., a boy born in and from tragedy has grown up to be the man in charge. His skill? To always know how and when to be one step ahead of his enemies but unfortunately for the people that surround him; his ambition is fueled by greed not by loyalty. To most people murder and deceit is a painful path but to a certain few it's the path chosen. Chase's calculated thoughts and ruthless behavior is what keeps him at the top of the game but it's his troubled past that haunts him and unravels his thoughts. He's followed by a small crew of loyal men and one other person; his aunt who is the only family member he has left. They have all seen his wrath. Their fear is who will Chase unleash his anger on next. It's no secret that behind his smile there are no good intentions and his actions are predictable to no one. The friction between him and his competitors lead to chaos but anyone who is invested in the streets knows that there can only be one winner when the smoke clears and Chase intends to be the last one standing; by any means necessary. The people that love him, fear him and the people that fear him, should.

Plot: Tony "Wise" Good, is an internationally famous model. He fought his way out of the inner city and rocketed straight to the top. He had it all... The career, the trophy wife, fame, fortune and all the luxuries that come with success. But his swift rise to the top did not take him high enough to protect him from the sudden fall he was about to experience. The corrupt corporate world, the government's support and participation in that corruption, and the jealousy and greed of people he knew best, all lead to a rapid downward spiral into a living hell. On the surface, "THE SYSTEM WITHIN" entices the audience with the sounds and style of the fast forward urban community. Beneath that surface we discover all is not what it seems when you are working in the system. Behind the facade and covert liaisons portrayed in the film, it becomes apparent that we all are captives in society and when we think we know the way out..we suddenly are trapped by THE SYSTEM WITHIN.
