Synopsis

Bone tells the story of four friends who get caught up in a crooked venture to transport illegally-obtained genetic material across national borders.

Upon returning to her hometown, Hadley (Marisa Malone) finds herself in the company of her lover, Paul (Romano Orzari). Paul is an educated young man who – like many from his generation – is stuck working for minimum wage in a position well below his qualifications. For all these reasons, Paul wants to quit. Marty (David Andrew Barret) is a long-time friend who often has his hand in shady deals of all kinds. But this time, Marty has a tempting offer for Hadley and Paul for an easy, sure-fire scam that could net them all a handsome sum.

The idea is to use Hadley’s position as a flight attendant to transport a mysterious package on a simple round trip and voila! However sceptical, Hadley nonetheless agrees to meet Marty and his live-in girlfriend, Jamie (Eva Gaspar). Jaime is a troubled beauty who writes poetry in her spare time, otherwise working as a masseuse out of a converted room in her apartment. The two women immediately share a strong affinity for one another. The story takes a bad turn when their paranoia is worsened as they meet Frankie the mobster dealer (Mark Houghton), who has a unique vision concerning events as they unfold.
