Synopsis:

Shot in the first person by the actors in the film, FIX is a one-day odyssey through the myriad worlds of Los Angeles as filmmakers Bella (Olivia Wilde) and Milo (director Tao Ruspoli) race to get Milo's brother Leo (Shawn Andrews) from jail to rehab before 8pm, or Leo goes to prison for 3 years. Inspired by true events, we follow the trio on their roller-coaster ride from the Calabasas police station through mansions in Beverly Hills, east LA chop-shops, rural wastelands and housing estates, as they strive to raise the necessary $5,000 rehab deposit. We meet dozens of colourful characters along the way who each have their own take on Leo's larger-than-life personality and flair. Each has an excuse to not help out... until in the end, it may take a drug deal to raise the money.

Inspired by actual events, director Tap Ruspoli's urgent road film follows documentary filmmakers Bella and Milo as they race across Los Angeles on a twelve hour mission to get Milo's brother Leo to rehab before he's given a three year prison sentence. Beginning at a police station in suburban Calabasas, Bella, Milo, and Leo blast through Beverly Hills, Watts, and everyplace in between as they attempt to raise the $5000 needed to get Leo into rehab. Ironically, it begins to appear as if cutting a quick but lucrative drug deal may be the best way to ensure that Leo ends up in rehab instead of prison.

Racing across Los Angeles, documentary filmmakers Bella and Milo go from Beverly Hills to Watts to get Milo's brother Leo from jail to rehab before 8pm, or Leo goes to prison for three years. The trio documents their trip from a suburban police station in Calabasas through mansions in Beverly Hills, East LA chop-shops, rural wastelands, and housing projects in Watts as they attempt to raise the $5,000 required to get Leo into the rehab clinic. In the end, it may take a drug deal to get the necessary funds for rehab.
