Logline

Jack, a career criminal, has come out of jail to find his best friend married to his ex-fiancée. Wanting to go straight, he attempts to separate himself from old, bad influences but finds that it's easier said than done.

Synopsis

Five long years…that’s how long Jack spent in prison after getting pinched for robbery. His partner in crime and best friend, Twala, never got caught and Jack never talked. But Twala proved as treacherous as Jack is honourable by marrying Jack’s former fiancée during his prison term.

Upon being released Jack decides to go straight. He wants to start a construction business, but after being rejected for a loan he must find a new source of capital. An opportunity presents itself when Twala suggests they do a home invasion with a take worth R2 million. The complication is that the mark is Twala’s father, Julius. In his search for a third partner Jack comes across the tough, but sexy Olive.

When the robbery goes wrong, secret double crosses are revealed. Twala never intended to split the money with Jack and has planned to kill him all along. As Julius edges closer to finding out who ripped him off and the pressure mounts on the three accomplices the tension builds towards an explosive and surprising finale.
