Jack and Ava steal a stash of illegal firearms from the wrong crew, and now a 72-hour clock is running against them.

What is Jack and Ava about?

Jack, an orphan with nothing left to lose, and Ava, a survivor who has learned to keep moving, become lovers on the run after pulling off a theft that puts them in the crosshairs of two dangerous local men. With their friend Will along for the ride and corrupt police officers closing the distance, the pair have roughly three days to figure out how far their loyalty to each other actually extends. Jack and Ava frames its crime plot as a test of character as much as a chase, pushing its central couple through decisions that reveal who they are once the adrenaline wears thin and the consequences start catching up. The firearms heist that opens the story is less the point than what it sets loose: enemies who do not forgive, cops who cannot be trusted, and a shrinking window in which redemption is still possible. It is a lean thriller built around momentum, keeping its scope tight around three people trying to outlast both the criminals behind them and their own worst instincts.

About the cast

Elisha Herbert and Isaac Lee take the title roles of Ava and Jack, with Deion Smith, Carter Sirianni, Joshua Albert Brook, Jordan Iacovella, Evan Bergman, and Marissa Godinez completing the cast. Isaac Lee also co-directs the film alongside Michael Pollard, giving the production a hands-on link between the story's lead performance and its overall shape.

Context & significance

Co-directed by Isaac Lee and Michael Pollard, this 2024 American thriller sits squarely in crime-drama territory, built around a fugitive couple, a stolen cache of weapons, and a countdown that keeps the plot moving at a brisk 90 minutes. The setup draws on familiar lovers-on-the-run conventions but narrows its focus to the pressure of a fixed timeframe, letting the 72-hour structure dictate pacing rather than sprawling into a wider crime saga.
