13-year-old Ricardo (Jezriel Skei) is at a crossroads. A chess prodigy, he is lured in equal measure by the thrill of warfare on the chessboard and the seductive prestige of joining a powerful street gang. Drawn into gang life by the charisma of Americans gang leader Gasant (Irshaad Ally), Ricardo takes his first steps into gang initiation. With no father to guide him, the one adult he looks up to is Captain Tito Hanekom (Abduragman Adams), a career cop hell bent on tracking down the serial killer of young boys. When another boy goes missing, Tito’s focus shifts away from Ricardo.
