About MAN ON THE RUN …

Master burglar Francis Hoyt is on the run. After walking away from his arraignment in a Connecticut courtroom, he's now a fugitive who has to figure out what he's going to do with the rest of his life.

And so, he heads west, to Los Angeles, where he meets Dakota, a young true crime podcaster who happens to be doing a series on Hoyt. At the same time, he's approached by a mysterious attorney who makes Hoyt an offer he can't refuse: break into a "mob bank," and liberate the contents.
