Sleepers

Four childhood friends, Shakes, Michael, Tommy, and John, were inseparable growing up in Hell's Kitchen. After a prank gone wrong, they were sent to a reformatory where they were physically, emotionally, and sexually abused by the guards. The experience left a lasting impact, and they vowed to never speak of it again. Thirteen years later, Tommy and John spot one of their abusers at a restaurant, leading Shakes and Michael to plan a revenge scheme. They enlist the help of their childhood friend, a social worker, and a mob boss, but their plan is threatened when they realize they need an unreproachable figure to perjure themselves. They turn to Father Bobby, who was a positive influence in their lives, but he must weigh the morality of helping his friends with the consequences of his actions.
