An exclusive 'Heartlock' clip explores love behind bars

From director Jon Kauffman comes “Heartlock,” a new dramatic thriller set in a New York prison that follows a romance between one of the guards, Tera Sharpe (Lesley-Ann Brandt) and an inmate, Lee Haze (Alexander Dreymon). As the film prepares to hit theaters and VOD tomorrow, Dark Star Pictures has provided Moviebill with an exclusive clip that you can check out in the player below!

Directed by Kauffman from a script he wrote with Chris Cummings, “Heartlock” offers a rogue love story centered on a female prison guard whose life is turned upside down by the fleeting affections of her lover — a male convict whose charm is only as genuine as his desire to be free.
