新加坡印度男子Siva因走私違禁品入獄8年,出獄後回家找不到自己的位置。Siva的母親已將他的睡房出租給外勞,他又無法聯絡前妻和女兒。為了追回失去的日子,Siva只好一邊以送葬維生,一邊連繫昔日親友,尋回失散的妻女。與此同時,Siva遇上同樣在逆境中拼摶的中國女子Chen,她為養活在中國大陸的家人,甘願出賣身體。一天,Chen遭人佔便宜,Siva伸出援手,自此成為相互的依靠。正當Siva獲得生活的慰藉,他找到妻女的地址,逐步接近難以接受的真相。為了贖罪,他可以去到幾盡?
It is an unwelcomed homecoming for Siva Sudhakar, a 38-year-old Singaporean Indian man, who is released from prison after 8 years behind bars for contraband smuggling. He returns to his mother’s flat to learn that his old bedroom has been rented out to migrant workers while his ex-wife and daughter have left without a trace. Unable to find forgiveness from his mother, he begins a quest to locate his ex-wife and daughter in order to right the wrongs of his past. An urban vagabond, he findswork banging cymbals in a funeral band while he tracks down people from his life before prison. In his lonely journey, he finds a kindred spirit – Chen Chen, a hostile Chinese woman on a social visit who works illegally to earn money for her debt-ridden family back in China. They connect when one day, Siva defends Chen Chen from a lecherous band member who tries to take advantage of her financial need. Isolated in their harsh realities, they find comfort in the presence of one another. Just as he begins to find solace and hope, he discovers the address of his ex-wife and daughter. There, he is confronted with a heinous truth. How far will he go in order to redeem himself from his guilt?
