Plot
Recently released from prison, Jack (Menzi Ngubane), a criminal who was sentenced to five years for robbery whilst his partner, Twala (Rapulana Seiphemo) evaded capture, returns to a very different reality from the one he left. Upon his arrival, Jack is shocked to learn that Twala and his former fiancée Kim (Hlubi Mboya) have gotten married whilst he was doing time on behalf of himself and his partner.

Whilst navigating the transformations that have taken place during his five years away, he decides that he wants to give up the life of crime for good. However, upon being rejected for a loan, and being left desperate for money, Jack finds himself quickly brought back into the crime world.

His next crime entails working with his former partner and a new addition to the team, Olive (Terry Pheto), to organise the robbery of Twala's own father, Julius Twala Snr. for Two Million Rand. However, when the robbery goes wrong, personal agendas are revealed, culminating in an explosive finale.
