Synopsis/Details
“No Country for Old Men” meets "The Fugitive" in this gripping action thriller. Tracker combines the white-knuckle tension of a manhunt with the moral complexity of a character-driven revenge tale. At its core, it’s the story of a flawed lawman facing off against a cunning revolutionary, where every choice carries the weight of a nation’s future. When charismatic college professor-turned-terrorist Ben Jacobs orchestrates a daring escape from federal custody, it’s up to disgraced U.S. Marshal Drake Stonebow to bring him back. Jacobs, a former Special Forces operative and intellectual firebrand, has gone underground, leaving a trail of bodies and a growing insurgency of disillusioned young radicals in his wake. Stonebow, now working as a bounty hunter, reluctantly reenters the hunt when his former partner and closest friend, Alex Church, is killed during Jacobs’ second, violent breakout. Fueled by guilt and a thirst for justice, Stonebow uncovers a plot that goes far beyond petty terrorism. Jacobs and his accomplices are planning an audacious strike at a high-profile global summit, equipped with black-market weapons and the backing of an underground network of zealots. As the body count rises and political pressure mounts, Stonebow must navigate a maze of betrayal, personal demons, and the ticking clock of an impending catastrophe. With nothing left to lose, Stonebow plunges into a relentless pursuit, challenging his moral boundaries and redefining his own sense of justice. In the ultimate showdown, it’s brains versus brawn, ideals versus vengeance, as the hunter and hunted collide in an explosive finale.

The Writer: Scott Sawitz

I write genre-driven character studies populated by people at their worst — complex, flawed, and typically off-balance. My scripts mix dark thrills with off-kilter humor amid the absurdities of life. My feature Save State is streaming now on Tubi, Amazon, FuboTV, iTunes, ReVeel and a number of other places. It's a great watch, I'd like to think! I’ve been optioned four times, worked as a freelance sports writer, and I’ll probably make you laugh (or roll your eyes) before I do anything else. Oh — and my dog is cuter than yours. Go to bio
