3. The Right Kind of Violence
As Breakin’ the Cycle spirals into chaos, Colin and D make their boldest move yet — shutting down their drug empire, and taking control of the story only they can tell.
Production on Breakin’ the Cycle is falling apart - actors are injured, the crew is out of its depth, and Colin and D realise their director can’t capture the reality they lived.
As D faces court and confronts the police corruption that shaped his life, he and Colin make a life-changing decision — to finally commit to breaking the cycle, shutting down their criminal operation, and betting everything on film.
