The Perfect Cut

The Perfect Cut

PEOPLE TALKING ABOUT THE PERFECT CUT...

"Unique concept. Well paced with lots of reveals and twists."

— Matt Dy, Austin Film Festival Screenplay & Teleplay Competition Director

LOGLINE

A highly successful jewel thief steals a priceless red diamond but she's caught by a ruthless bounty hunter. The movie starts sixteen years later. She gets out of prison and goes after the diamond again, hoping to use it as bait for the bounty hunter so she can kill him. The robbery goes bad, but she escapes, only to find a sixteen-year-old grifter dogging her trail. The jewel thief goes on the run from the authorities, the bounty hunter, and the girl, who turns out to be her daughter, who grew up in foster homes and is planning her own revenge.
