Toy Gun is a gritty, action-packed crime caper about Ruggero Levati who looks to show the world the despair his ex-wife has left him in through a poorly thought out and irrational gesture, only to find himself worthy to move on thanks to the advice of his reformed ex-con neighbor and his newfound, albeit stolen, cash injection. All this while a police investigation engulfs everyone he crosses paths with, while buried in his sullen oblivion.
