Set in the cold and rusty steel mill town of Scranton, Pennsylvania, Forged follows ex-thug Jesus "Chuco" Barrera (Manny Perez) on his quest to redeem himself for committing a horrific sin - the murder of his wife. After Chuco's release from prison, his now 13-year-old, abused and homeless son, Machito (David Castro), seeks him out and simply mutters: "You killed my mother. Now I kill you." As Chuco's guilt and Machito's need for a father take hold, they must both find a way to move past impossible circumstances to forge a bond that has been forever broken.
