Cash and Birdie

2106. Nuovo Dallas. A city fueled by diesel and debauchery. Professional thieves Cash Nolan and Birdie Hahn fight tooth and nail for dominance of the “snuff” drug trade. When their competing heists in a pharmaceutical plant go belly-up, both are captured by federal authorities and brain-wiped. Although well-intentioned, the Clean-Slate rehabilitation program fails to prevent the defanged rivals from reconvening. Newly state-dubbed Cassidy Becker and Faustine Voss return to the bowels of the city they helped desecrate. Now best friends, the two clueless vagrants, claw their way back up through Nuovo Dallas society. As they follow the footprints of their shared history, piecing together fleeting wisps of memory, they realize their forgotten grudge runs deep, dark, and unforgivable.
