Synopsis: Dahn sits alone in a Singapore prison cell, far away from everyone he has ever loved. Whether a matter of fate or free will, his life has spun out of control, and now he faces the death penalty for his role in a drug trafficking scheme.
Years earlier, before the choices, the charges, and the trial, Dahn and his older brother Hao leave Vietnam as refugees and arrive in Sydney, Australia. In that city of promise and opportunity nothing comes easily to the brothers. Prejudice, poverty, and stigma push them toward crime, and eventually onto the complex path to redemption.
By a twist of fate, Hao falls in love with Ling, the sister of a drug trafficking kingpin. Hao, the only father that Dahn has never known, finds himself involved with a vicious Asian triad and to the very brink of disaster. As he is sucked into a world of crime, he quickly realizes that it is one from which he can never escape. But when times turn tough, the younger Dahn resolves to save his brother from the clutch of death.
Caught by the authorities carrying heroin into Singapore, a nation with severe and unbending penalties for drug trafficking, Dahn faces impossible odds. While his lawyer, Alison, fights to save his life and his brother struggles to find hope in an often unforgiving world, Dahn awaits his sentence, no longer as a boy but as a man. For a brief moment, he glimpses the fragile thread that they all must hold on to, and understands that to lose hope is to lose everything.
