The Story
Pinky is in trouble. Dog racing and the community of the track is the only life he knows but he’s falling through the cracks. He’s a lost soul, abandoned by his parents, and has recently lost the only stable figure in his life - the Grandfather who raised him. Now he’s facing the mess that his life has become and the relationships he’s ruined through his addiction to gambling.
He is on a life-long losing streak and his debts have piled up to an unmanageable point following a series of desperate bets at the track. Local gang boss Dempsey has known Pinky since he was a boy, but that won’t stop him from acting. He has until midnight Friday to come up with the money or he will end up dead in the canal. Pinky’s only option is to place everything he’s got on a single race.
