In Shoot First, Die Later, Luc Merenda stars as a highly regarded police detective who is taking syndicate money in exchange for departmental favors. His father, a simple man, also works for the department but at a lower level; he isn’t jealous of his son, but rather proud of him, little knowing that he’s a crooked cop. A series of events leads the young detective to ask his father for a tricky favor, and it doesn’t take long for daddy to realize his son is on the take, which leads to numerous complications.
