ONE MAN'S SEARCH FOR JUSTICE AND REDEMPTION PLUNGES HIM INTO THE VIOLENT WORLD OF MELBOURNE'S UNDERBELLY.
Defence laywer Will Harris is reluctantly drawn into a bizarre murder trial. A terminally ill man claims to have witnessed the brutal crime – in a vision.

With the pressure mounting, Will's loyalties are split when his fiancée's sister is charged with drug trafficking.
The strain of balancing both cases takes its toll and Will finds himself torn between following the law and seeking justice.
