Bait - L'esca

Louisiana bayou. Crickets. A busload of convicts. Small-time crook Alvin Sanders is released into federal custody as bait. His target: a master thief who needs a heart transplant. High-tech surveillance follows. Antoine Fuqua's pre-Training Day crime picture is a messy, aughts-era time capsule.
