Sarah, struggling as a single mother, is desperate to discover who brutally murdered her husband in front of her young son, Ben (Rudy Doherty), which rendered him mute. Dismissing the crime as thugs killing each other, the police haven’t done a thing to help, and Sarah’s very much on edge. One day, after being coerced into helping a low-life drug dealer, Tito (Andrew Simpson), stash narcotics stolen from the neighborhood kingpin, Leo (Edward Hogg), she’s forced into taking drastic action to protect her children, and evolves from downtrodden submissive to take-charge vigilante.
