Pastor Leung (Anthony Wong) has been consumed by grief since his daughter’s brutal assault and suicide. Years later, the young offender Chi Lok (George Au) is released from prison and unexpectedly joins Leung’s church. As their bond deepens, the pastor’s faith faces its ultimate trial: can forgiveness triumph over vengeance, or will old wounds consume them both?
