Synopsis
CRIMINALS CLUB
A psychological crime thriller
DETECTIVE WHITTAKER has solved many, many crimes throughout his time as a detective;
but the current crime is one to baffle him to a whole new level. Aided by his handy sidekick
SOPHIA RICHARDSON, Whittaker sets out to defeat SAM HURST, the latest playing piece of
the Criminals Club, in order for him to retire happily and finally be done with this group of
unruly criminals.
Detective Whittaker is an aging detective who has lived in Birmingham, UK for his whole life,
he has solved a great deal of crimes in the area. As the present day has come around, he is
due for retirement from dealing with these crimes which have all been linked in one way or
another. He now hopes to pass his knowledge and expertise onto Sophia Richardson, a
young bubbly brunette who has been working alongside Whittaker for months and learning
everything he has to teach. Together they have powered through to beat the plans of
RICHARD HURST; who has been planning crimes from the inside and using relatives of his
fellow prisoners to play out his dirty work. His latest playing piece is Sam Hurst, his younger
brother and doting father to LAURA HURST; he eventually gets mixed up in the bad plans of
his older brother and loses his daughter, whom he would do anything for, to her mother.
For many years, Detective Whittaker has been solving the crimes manipulated by no other
than Richard Hurst - but no more will he let himself spend time on this unruly criminal. The
Criminals Club - led by Richard - sit around in their dim prison socialisation room, using
flashbacks of their previous crimes to plan the crime to end all crimes and ultimately take
down Whittaker once and for all. Little do they know that Whittaker and Sophia are already
onto them and have plans to stop them in their tracks and save the people they plan to
harm. The film climaxes in a shootout in a damp, disused warehouse where Whittaker and
Sophia stop Sam from playing his part before it is too late. Whittaker throws Sam into the
socialisation room to astonished looks from the Criminals Club before leaving and saying
“I’m done with all of you”.
