The film utilizes a "hyperlink" narrative structure where three separate stories reach a critical boiling point at the same location:

A restaurant busboy (Dylan Flashner) and his girlfriend (Aisha Dee) attempt to secure their future by hiding and selling a large quantity of cocaine found in the restaurant's freezer.

Hunter (Ryan Phillippe) meets Tamira (Kat Graham), a woman with deep-seated trauma related to the South African apartheid era who has explosive plans for her companion.
