The Dealership

Carmen Madrid finally gets his opportunity and moves up to become a hotshot salesman selling Jaguars, Lincolns, and Chevys. Life in Jamaica Queens is good--for a while--but the commission checks aren't as big as he'd anticipated, and it isn't long before he's looking for other ways to pay the bills. That's when he discovers that the dealership does more than just sell cars. Money laundering, drug peddling and murder are all part of the gig, and it isn't long before he has to make a choice: be an honest salesman, or take the big money from the "side jobs" being offered to him. Travel with Carmen through the gritty world of fast cars and faster women, organized crime and racketeering, all of it shrouded by the tough times that blanketed New York City in the mid-'80s. Does Carmen do the right thing, or does he become just another punk trying to get over on others before they get over on him? Find out how he walks the line between decency and depravity, and see if he comes out on top. It's quite a trip.
