A jaded, alcoholic cop is given the simple task of escorting a witness 16 blocks to the courthouse to testify. The journey becomes a life-or-death battle when corrupt police officers, who will be implicated by the testimony, attempt to kill the witness before he can reach the stand. The cop must protect him and redeem his own failed career.
