PITCH

Rough N Tumble Night is a high-stakes urban thriller set in the gritty, neon-lit streets of 1995 Los Angeles, where ambition, danger, and betrayal collide.

Nick, disillusioned with his suburban life, embarks on an adventure with his friends RK and Mickey, only to find themselves entangled in a deadly game of revenge after their car is stolen by criminals connected to a dangerous drug dealer, Bucky. What starts as a pursuit of vengeance spirals into a chaotic heist, pushing Nick and his friends to their limits.

Inspired by the raw energy of iconic '90s films like Pulp Fiction, this movie taps into the nostalgia of a defining era, offering audiences a chance to relive the excitement of LA’s underground world. The emotional core of the film lies in Nick’s transformation from a bored suburbanite to a man forced to confront his values and choices, with his bond to Kalvin’s sister, Chas, adding unexpected depth.

With a compelling mix of action, loyalty, and self-discovery, Rough N Tumble Night is a rare and unforgettable thriller that taps into the pulse of '90s culture, offering an experience that both entertains and resonates. With an experienced team behind it and the resurgence of ‘90s nostalgia, this film promises to connect with audiences who crave both raw, high-octane action and emotional stakes.
