The "War on Drugs"... One of the most debated and controversial topics of the last 40+ years. When hard drugs invade a small town, local and federal law enforcement find themselves working together. Navigating the minefield of local political officials and junkie confidential informants, the team seeks to root out a sinister network of "meth" cooks and dealers threatening to change the face of Long Island's picture perfect suburban north shore. Officer Charles Cooper will be forced to either live a life of denial or accept the new threats forced upon himself and his family. Clandestine explores the "War On Drugs" in a modern day morality tale by focusing on the people who comprise this war; our law enforcement, our elected officials, and our neighbors.—Feenix Films LLC

In this movie loosely based on real events, in Medford, Suffolk County, Long Island, Coop and his partner pull over Nikki, who is suspected of being a drug dealer. The nice suburban house where he lives is soon taken over by a S.W.A.T. team, and a child is removed. So is Julia, but the cops aren't sure who is doing what. The DEA was preoccupied with terrorism after 9-11, but meth has come to Long Island. It could be anyone selling it. Nikki just happens to look like a drug dealer. Coop once wanted to be a DEA agent and it's not clear why he just became a regular cop. He does have a wife Olivia, and a young daughter. McEnroe (not the correct spelling) and Scott are assigned to Medford and both make a presentation in an auditorium, though few in the community show up. Julia is asked to help catch the bad guys. One incentive is that she has been unable to see her son, and she has a nice visit with him. She's not the villain, but she can help them get to the villains. She's not the cook, but she helps distribute. She actually helps distribute. Julia can't seem to tell the truth and if she doesn't help catch the bad guys, she won't see her son. Nikki also gets a deal if he helps out. One possible member of the team is a respectable-looking pharmacist with a nice house. Several attempts are made to catch the bad guys. Things don't go as well as hoped.
