A chance encounter changes his life trajectory, as he moves from a comfortable suburban life to become a drug kingpin, leading to a constant struggle between his precarious environment and the pursuit of a better future.
His past, however, does not define him. Marcel decides to use the strength of his experiences to carve a new path.
