Plot

In 2018, in a crime-ridden dystopian Detroit, a particularly notorious neighborhood has grown so dangerous that law enforcement is overwhelmed. Unable to control the crime, city officials build a 40 ft (12 m)-tall containment wall around this area, known as Brick Mansions, "the projects", or the "no-go zone", to cut it off from the rest of the city. Police monitor all movement in and out of Brick Mansions, and schools and hospitals within it have been shut down.

French-Caribbean ex-convict Lino Duppre is hunted by drug kingpin Tremaine Alexander for stealing and destroying a large amount of heroin. Lino evades capture, and so Tremaine has his men capture Lino's girlfriend, Lola. Lino frees her, and they capture Tremaine and turn him in to police at the border wall. However, the chief of police, who is on Tremaine's payroll, frees Tremaine and arrests Lino instead.
