Detailed plot synopsis reviews of Point of Origin


John Orr (Liotta) is a hard working arson investigator for the Glendale Fire Department who appears to have taught Keith "Junior" Lang (Leguizamo) everything he knows. He's a pro who seems to almost mystically devine the point of origin at even the most puzzling fire and is able to find the tiniest evidence shred. An elusive serial arsonist is plaguing the Los Angeles area and may also be responsible for a series of fires north of Los Angeles. Lang is assigned to the task force. Matters become complicated when it appears the arsonist may be a firefighter.
