When Eastern European criminals Oleg and Emil come to New York City to pick up their share of a heist score, Oleg steals a video camera and starts filming their activities, both legal and illegal. When they learn how the American media circus can make a remorseless killer look like the victim and make them rich, they target media-savvy NYPD Homicide Detective Eddie Flemming and media-naive FDNY Fire Marshal Jordy Warsaw, the cops investigating their murder and torching of their former criminal partner, filming everything to sell to the local tabloid TV show "Top Story."
15 Minutes is a 2001 action-crime thriller starring Robert De Niro and Edward Burns as New York law enforcement officers hunted by Eastern European criminals who exploit media sensationalism to become famous killers. The film explores how two ruthless criminals use a stolen video camera to document their crimes and manipulate tabloid television to turn themselves into media celebrities. Released in March 2001, it combines high-octane action sequences with sharp social commentary on American media culture.
