Synopsis

Enfant, Vincent LaMarca a vécu dans la honte de son père, exécuté sur la chaise électrique de la prison de Sing-Sing pour avoir causé la mort d'un enfant au cours d'un enlèvement raté. Policier à New York, il mène désormais une existence paisible. Jusqu'au jour où il apprend que son fils en fuite, Joey, est soupçonné de deux meurtres : celui d'un dealer et celui de son propre partenaire, Reg. Après avoir divorcé dans la douleur de son épouse Maggie, Vincent se déroba autrefois à ses obligations paternelles en abandonnant Joey.   

------------------------------------------------

Inspired by the 1997 Esquire article Mark of a Murderer, written by Pulitzer-Prize winning journalist Mike McAlary, City by the Sea tells the gripping story of a dedicated police officer who discovers that the chief suspect in his current murder investigation is his own son. New York City homicide detective Vincent LaMarca (ROBERT De NIRO) has forged a long and distinguished career in law enforcement, making a name for himself as a man intensely committed to his work. But on his latest case, the stakes are higher for Vincent ­ the suspect heís investigating is his own son, Joey (JAMES FRANCO). Vincent and Joey have been painfully estranged ever since Vincent divorced Joeyís mother and left the decaying boardwalks of Long Beach, Long Island for the anonymity of Manhattan and a successful career with the NYPD. He lives his life in solitude, keeping his girlfriend (FRANCES McDORMAND) at armís length. The closest relationship he maintains is with his partner, Reg (GEORGE DZUNDZA), and Vincent makes sure that stops at the precinct door. As long as Vincent lives in the protection of the present, he doesnít have to deal with the pain of his past. The murder investigation draws Vincent home to Long Beach, the self-proclaimed "City by the Sea," where the past has been waiting for him to return. In the course of his investigation, Vincent discovers that his own unresolved pain and failures as a father have deeply influenced Joeyís life and the destructive choices he has made. As a cop, Vincent must bring a criminal to justice; as a father, he must find a way to save his son. Now he will put his life on the line in order to do right by both his family and his profession.
