Plot and Characters
“KIN, a pulse-pounding crime thriller with a sci-fi twist, is the story of an unexpected hero destined for greatness. Chased by a vengeful criminal (James Franco) and a gang of otherworldly soldiers, a recently released ex-con (Jack Reynor) and his adopted teenage brother (Myles Truitt) are forced to go on the run with a weapon of mysterious origin as their only protection”.
The film delves deep into the relationship between the two brothers, exploring themes of family, loyalty, and survival.

The mysterious weapon they find becomes a central element of the plot, adding layers of intrigue and suspense.
Production and Direction
KIN has been directed by Jonathan Baker and Josh Baker, who are known for their unique storytelling and ability to blend different genres seamlessly.
