99 is an original story inspired by real events. Well, very liberally inspired - it is more fiction than fact. It is a genre-bender – spanning a few genres. It is realistic, slick, fast-paced, and importantly, very funny.
It is the story of two different men in two different cities, who are bound by a common feeling of always being stuck at ‘99’. They never seem to make it to a ‘century’- in life. It is a journey of two men who want to break away from the rut and strike that one elusive run.
What follows is an unpredictable and hilarious ride through two cities with colorful and real-life characters, titillating romances, unbelievable circumstances, small-time crooks, big-time conspiracies, spectacular car crashes, loads of coffee, a briefcase full of money... and a historical controversy brewing in the background that they become unwillingly part of.
