An ode to friendship that revolves around the relationship between a veteran police officer and his young informant – two men at odds over their principles, yet united by the loneliness of their jobs, their loyalty and a sense of abandonment. In the midst of a dangerous police operation, both will cross boundaries that will force them to face the consequences of their actions. Inspired by real events.
