After years of being at odds, Gabriel and Driss have gone separate ways – one as a cop, the other as a go-between for thugs. They find themselves reunited at the bedside of their childhood friend Sofia when she ends up in a coma after a car accident. Their confusion gives way to astonishment at 17-year-old Leila. Her striking resemblance to her mother is uncanny, but her fierce temper will shake up the two old friends. As she seeks revenge for her mother, she disappears with Gab’s gun which leaves the two orphans no other choice but to put their problems aside and try to find Leila before she makes any serious mistake.
