Disillusioned by his autocratic
grandfather, Robert "The Kaiser" Roberts (Donald Moffat),
renegade broker Robert "Ditto" Roberts III (George Newbern)
risks everything when he defects from the old-guard firm.
"Ditto" enlists a plan to his hard-charging colleagues, Corey
Granville (Malik Yoba), Marty Decker (Ian Kahn), Carson Boyd
(Christopher Wiehl), Alison Jeffers (Elisabeth Rohm) and Marissa Rufo
(Alicia Coppola), to begin a rival start-up firm that will answer the
call of the new economy.
With no financing, no clients and the
rivalry of every player in town, the team's dreams rest on Hunter Lasky
(Stanley Tucci), the hard-hitting negotiations shark who has the
potential to give the renegade team of Wall Street turks the edge and
legitimacy they need to succeed in the competitive world of high
finance.
