Synopsis:

When a chance to save his ailing diner goes belly up, Onassis Hernandez, an émigré and single-father living in affluent Singapore, is pushed over the edge.

As the police and international media descend on the crime scene, and riots break out in the city, an increasingly desperate Onassis forces the situation to a violent, heart-stopping conclusion.
