They begin a passionate love affair and together they begin to plan how to steal Nina's boyfriend's drug money . Unfortunately , nothing goes as planned and suddenly everyone is in the midst of a dark tangle of revenge and betrayal ... Cinetrange Magazine: "A curious European blend of David Lynch, John Dahl and Quentin Tarantino." MJ Simpson: "A clever, tightly honed script combines with assured direction and a central quartet of excellent performances make No Right Turn a real joy to watch."
