Iron Bound is a gritty account of life in the margins of Newark's Ironbound district in 1961. With elements of a noir crime drama, Brendan Leach's ability to evoke place and moment elevates the narrative to a complex examination of the tenuous relationships of characters mired in conflict and fear.
