CARGO, a nail-biting drama about a man who reluctantly accepts a job smuggling Haitians to Florida will release in theaters May 30. Provided below is a brand new clip from Artist Rights Distribution’s upcoming crime drama, starring Jimmy Jean-Louis (“Arrow”, “Heroes”) and Warren Brown (“Strike Back”) and directed by Kareem Mortimer.

Synopsis: When his income as a fisherman proves woefully insufficient to cover his son’s school fees, Kevin turns to human smuggling in order to raise desperately needed funds. Kevin finds that he’s good at this dangerous yet profitable vocation—good enough to trust himself with smuggling his own girlfriend and her son to the US. But when faced with having to abandon refugees at sea far from Miami shores, Kevin is suddenly forced to reassess his responsibilities. Inspired by true events, Cargo examines the world’s refugee crisis from a very local perspective. The largest Bahamian film project to date, this latest feature from Kareem J. Mortimer is a thrilling, vital call for empathy in troubled times.
