A high profile arms dealer comes under increased police scrutiny when his teenage son is implicated in the murder of a senator's father. British expatriate Paul Duguid (Colm Feore) is an international arms dealer accredited by numerous governments, though he also hawks illegal guns to petty street thugs. Paul has earned the nickname "Mr. Teflon" for his uncanny ability to avoid prosecution, but his non-stick coating begins to flake when his son Bobby (Gregory Smith) wanders into the home of a small-time gun dealer who's currently under surveillance. The father of a prominent U.S. Senator has been murdered, and now Bobby is the primary suspect. When Bobby's girlfriend Frances (Elisha Cuthbert) volunteers to run guns over the border, an already complicated situation soon threatens to turn deadly.
