They do a lot, are often together and have many common interests. It’s not important to him that he’s a boy from a good family and Noemi comes from the prefabricated housing estate on the outskirts of town. And it doesn’t seem unusual to him that Noemi doesn’t want him to visit her there. But when he tries to surprise her one evening, he discovers her dark secret: not only is she overwhelmed with raising her younger sister Cassandra, she is also a member of a gang that takes drugs. Faster than he can think, Leon finds himself in the middle of a drug swamp and becomes an addicted drug dealer himself in his attempt to free Noemi from it… A gripping, oppressive thriller set in the drug world that tells the story of a desperate young man who goes through hell for the love of his life.
