Inspired by real events, the Bone Breakers is the story of a gang of improvised criminals who hatch a diabolical and gruesome plan to make money. The gang breaks people’s limbs and stages road accidents in exchange for part of insurance payouts. Half of the amount goes to the gang, and the other to the victims.
