Emily the Criminal
“A gritty and suspenseful LA noir that also serves to examine the structural issues that uphold wealth inequality in this country.”
- Katie Walsh, The Wrap
“Dicey, daring and unpredictable and should cast a broader spotlight on both its star and its filmmaker.”
- San Jose Mercury News
“An intense drama rife with social commentary about the fraying edges of today's world and the tiny push it takes to send someone over the line.”
- Detroit News
SYNOPSIS: Emily (Aubrey Plaza) is saddled with student debt and locked out of the job market due to a minor criminal record. Desperate for income, she takes a shady gig as a "dummy shopper," buying goods with stolen credit cards supplied by a handsome and charismatic middleman named Youcef (Theo Rossi). Faced with a series of dead-end job interviews, Emily soon finds herself seduced by the quick cash and illicit thrills of black-market capitalism, and increasingly interested in her mentor Youcef. Together, they hatch a plan to bring their business to the next level in Los Angeles.
