In FREERUNNER, a band of freerunning street racers, led by Ryan (Sean Faris), are controlled by mobster Reese (Tamer Hassan), who has set up a cyber-betting system with the race webcast onto computers throughout the area. The stakes change when the freerunners are kidnapped and, with explosive collars locked to their necks, are given 90 minutes to race across town or die, all for the amusement of Mr. Frank (Danny Dyer) - and the betting games of his sadistic Billionaires Club. The losers die and the winner gets one million dollars. With the runner friends now pitted against each other in life or death, they need the help of their family and friends to end the craziness before it ends them!!
