Description: A corrupt Drug Enforcement Administration boss and his thugs murder Natalie's family in a drug deal gone awry. Orphaned by the massacre, Natalie is forced to take shelter in the apartment of a neighbor, Leon, whom she knows only slightly.

Together they form a makeshift father and daughter bond that will forever change both their lives.
