When a San Francisco lab technician is caught taking drug evidence, a whole slew of cases are thrown out– including the most important case Detective Darrel Carrigan has ever been assigned to.

Greg Pedemonte drives a vintage mustang in "Technicality."

Inspired by a true story, “Technicality” is a dark glimpse of a man on the brink of chaos, his beliefs shattered by a failing justice system.

The film is currently shooting on location in San Francisco, Berkeley and Oakland.

Starring: Greg Pedemonte, Lewis Sims, Fred Webre, Janelle Marie, Desiree Rogers and Tara Montoya
