Dominic Toretto drives the streets of LA like he owns them. As far as his crew is concerned, 
he does. He spends his days rebuilding high performance race cars and perfecting the art of 
computer controlled fuel injection. By night, Dom pockets up to $10,000 each time someone 
dares to race him in his own earth-bound rocket of a car. Dom lives off of the adrenaline of 
street car racing and his fans treat him like a rock star. Brian particularly looks up to 
Dominic and seeks his approval, but to the rest of the crowd, he's white bread. After a 
blazing encounter with the ruthless Johnny Tran, Dom decides to take Brian under his wing. 
Dom's sister Mia sees something she likes in Brian, too. Trouble is, neither of them realize 
he's an undercover cop and Dominic and his rival Johnny Tran are both the leading suspects 
in a case involving dirty money and big-rig hijacking.

The Fast & The Furious is loosely based on an article in a magazine about street clubs that 
race Japanese cars late at night. Domenic Toretto is the leader of a street gang that is under 
suspicion of stealing expensive electronic equipment. Brian O'Connor is an undercover police 
officer attempts to find out who exactly is stealing the equipment, while falling for Domenic's 
younger sister, Mia.

This action-adventure film is a fierce and frenzied look at rival Los Angeles street teams who 
use street racing as a means of establishing power.

The Fast and the Furious takes you inside the world of street racing. Dominic Toretto is a gang 
leader who is accused of hijacking trucks and stealing over a million dollars worth of electronic 
equipment. The FBI sends LAPD officer Brian O'Conner undercover into Los Angeles' street racing 
circuit to take down Toretto and his team. As O'Conner becomes part of Toretto's life and gets 
involved with his sister, Mia, he tries to prove that Toretto is innocent.
