The Sins background

The Sins

A former getaway driver struggles to overcome personal and family problems while resisting the allure of the seven deadly sins and maintaining his job at his uncle's funeral home.

Len Green, a former bank robber, has spent most of his life behind bars as a getaway driver. Now middle-aged, he has a luxurious house, a loving wife, and four grown daughters. Determined to change his lifestyle, he decides to "go straight" by joining his uncle's family business of undertakers. However, he is tempted by the seven deadly sins and his friends' requests for one last robbery. Meanwhile, his wife steals a priceless necklace, forcing Len to consider whether he will be the first robber to be jailed for returning stolen goods. As he navigates his new life, Len must also confront whether his wife still loves him and if he can still satisfy her in bed.
