Synopsis
Hightown (2020) is a Starz crime drama you can watch online on iFILM. Picture Cape Cod in summer — tourists, beaches, postcard light. Now picture the opioid wave thinning out the locals underneath all of it.
Jackie Quinones works for the National Marine Fisheries Service and coasts through the job on booze, parties and one-night stands. Then a young woman's body washes up on the shore while she's out. That death hits her harder than any hangover ever did. She gets sober and starts digging into the murder herself, even as the state cops try to shove her off the case. Monica Raymund plays Jackie raw and jittery, swinging between recovery and relapse.
Showrunner Rebecca Cutter sets the resort gloss against the drug trade feeding the whole region, and Oscar-nominated cinematographer Rachel Morrison shot the pilot. It's a hard, unsentimental story about addiction and obsession — built for anyone who clicked with coastal noir and the messier corners of prestige crime TV. Stream Hightown online on iFILM.
