Plots(1)
Coffy (Pam Grier) is a dedicated and passionate nurse who seeks revenge on the drug dealers who have devastated her community. When her younger sister becomes a victim of the drug trade, Coffy takes matters into her own hands, going undercover as a vigilante to dismantle the criminal underworld. As Coffy infiltrates the narcotics ring, she uses her intelligence, beauty, and martial arts skills to navigate a dangerous and corrupt world. Along the way, she forms alliances with both law enforcement and the criminal elements, blurring the lines between justice and revenge. Hailed as one of the most groundbreaking works of the Blaxploitation genre, Coffy has been described as a favourite by Quentin Tarantino. Director Jack Hill’s gritty portrayal of urban decay, intense action sequences, and unapologetic approach to addressing societal issues of the time, is celebrated as a classic.
