Set in the cold and industrial town of Scranton, Pennsylvania, Forged follows Chuco ( Manny Pérez) on his quest to redeem himself after committing a sin against his son, Machito ( David Castro). After Chuco’s release from prison, the boy, now 13 years old, abused and homeless, seeks him out and mutters: “You killed my mother. Now I kill you.” As Chuco’s guilt and Machito’s need for a father take hold, they must find a way to move past the circumstances to forge a bond that has been once broken.
