Shifter

In the bleak alternate near future New York of 2025, Ellen, an over-educated, under employed delivery girl gets pulled into the mob controlled underworld of illicit SHIFT racing in the twisted maze of subway tunnels beneath the city.Economic and environmental decline has intensified and the gap between rich and poor has become an untenable powder-keg. An impulsive act against the corrupt protectionist thugs on her street begins her journey towards understanding the nature of her city and its true masters. Sordid teen years spent joyriding in stolen cars are now an advantage as she enters a racing league where dangerous underworld factions recreate the bloody Circus Maximus using high-tech miniaturized aircraft in the subway tunnels beneath the city. In these tight confines and absurd speeds crashing is just a matter of time, but the miraculous SHIFT technology repurposed from military stealth aircraft can land you on the right side of the razor's edge between life and death.
