Don Reedy, just out of jail for a robbery he didn't commit, is involved with the making of a film based on his own life--and he has a burning desire to change the script. His plan is to steal the money he wishes he had stolen before, and then take to the road. But as the line between reality and drama blurs, he isn't sure whether he is now a full-fledged criminal or if he's just part of an endlessly rewritten movie.
