Description

Angie Wang is a co-ed and the biggest supplier of Ecstasy on the West Coast, fueling the Day-Glo excesses of the 1980s. After losing her scholarship to a prestigious college in San Francisco, she starts manufacturing the party drug to sell to her peers to make ends meet. At the same time, Angie mentors a young girl named Bree, whose desperate situation reminds Angie of her own past struggles. As her business heats up, Angie is hiding dangerous secrets from everyone in her life, including her best friend, her roommate, and her father.

When the consequences of her double life come home to roost, Angie finds herself tumbling out of control. She must finally make a choice between chasing her dreams and following the almighty dollar. Based on real life events, CARDINAL X stars Annie Q (of HBO’s THE LEFTOVERS) and Francesca Eastwood (of ABC’s HEROES REBORN).
