Enemy Within

About the film

In Los Angeles, a killer with sado-masochistic tendencies hunts down a beautiful dancer, Concetta Masconi (Romina Di Lella). Amid televised wars between Latino gangs, the young woman tries to pursue her American dream.

Jack (Eric Roberts), the owner of the club where she works, tempts her with a lifestyle she has never known before. When the search for the rapist and murderer brings no results, Jack hires two street thugs to protect Concetta.

The attempted rape case is handled by Los Angeles detective Solano (William McNamara), but finding the attacker proves nearly impossible. At the same time, the narcotics enforcement agency discovers that drugs worth millions of dollars have disappeared from warehouses storing confiscated substances. A good cop, Nick (Damian Chapa), does everything he can to find out who is behind it. He also becomes interested in Concetta’s case and tries to uncover who attempted to kill and rape her.

Concetta wants to forget the traumatic events and falls in love with a sexy Latino named Max (Paulo Benedeti). She believes that by his side she will finally build a life for herself — but she learns too late that he may be the one responsible for the attempt on her life.

In the background, the mastermind of a drug empire and shady “last breath” film deals (Sven Martinek) also appears — a true “bad boy.”
