Blood Father

Un ex-militar se reúne con su hija de 16 años,

con la intención de protegerla de unos traficantes de droga que quieren matarla.

Lydia, una joven de 16 años, es acusada de haber robado una fortuna a un cartel,

pero en realidad es una trampa fraguada por su novio traficante.

La chica tiene que escapar con el único aliado que tiene en el mundo: su padre,

John Link,

un eterno fracasado, antiguo motero rebelde y ex presidiario,

que se verá en la obligación de vincularse nuevamente con un pasado del que huía para poder salvarla a ella.

Self-exiled somewhere in the dusty landscapes on the outskirts of Los Angeles, John Link–a rugged former convict, and now, a tattoo artist struggling to stay sober–sees his quasi-orderly life turn upside down, when he receives a desperate phone call from his estranged daughter, Lydia. On the run from a ruthless Mexican drug cartel, John and Lydia must navigate through a dangerous world of frail allegiances and merciless cut-throats, as they seek shelter in an inhospitable city. Can the grizzled father save his teenage daughter from this nightmare?

Título original
Blood Father

John picks up Lydia after she calls from a payphone, brings her back to his place and lays her on the bed to sleep. John grabs Lydia’s bag and starts to empty it’s contents. He finds her pistol, releases the magazine, and empties the chamber.

The sound that followsin   Blood Father  is an empty casing hitting the floor, not an unfired round, even though the gun is a semi-automatic. The only way this occurs is if the gun has a failure to eject, which we know didn’t happen base don the last time she fired the gun.
