Histoire
In London, drug dealer Frank (Richard Coyle) finds himself in dire straits after a large cocaine deal goes awry due to a mix-up with his supplier's girlfriend. The cocaine was meant for Harry (Vincent Cassel), a ruthless crime lord who becomes enraged when he discovers the substitution. Desperate to appease Harry, Frank tries to secure another batch of pure cocaine but ends up selling him cut drugs instead. As days pass, Frank's desperate actions isolate him further as his associates and even his girlfriend Emma (Agnes Kuschina) turn against him. Meanwhile, Harry sends his henchmen, including Milo (Memphisongoose), to collect the debt and eliminate Frank if necessary. Throughout this week-long ordeal, Frank attempts various schemes to survive but finds himself increasingly cornered until there seems to be nothing left standing between him and Harry's bullets.
Résumé
Pusher (2012) is a British action thriller directed by Luis Prieto and serves as a remake of Nicolas Winding Refn's 1996 cult film of the same name. The movie is set in London's criminal underworld, following drug dealer Frank who gets entangled with dangerous crime lord Harry after a botched cocaine deal. Unlike the original, which was part of a trilogy focusing on different characters, this remake centers solely around Frank's struggle for survival amidst the ruthless London drug scene.
