The Last Hand
Short Film
Non Union
Los Angeles
Ricky, a reckless young gambler chasing control and escape, is lured into an underground poker house where addiction is quietly engineered through alcohol, drugs, and distraction. As the nights blur, the Dealer tightens his grip, selling the illusion of choice and brotherhood while exploiting Ricky’s weaknesses. Marcus, Ricky’s closest friend, shifts from enabler to would-be savior—but it’s too late. Ricky sinks beyond saving, losing family, relationships, and himself. The Last Hand explores the cost of choices made when walking away is no longer an option.
