At just 18, Brahim, a promising young footballer, is represented by his agent and cousin Mehdi. He is about to fulfil his dream of signing his first professional contract with Lyon. But the arrival of a powerful foreign agent changes all that. In this uncharted world, even loyalty comes at a price.

Refusing to go to school, anxious 16-year-old Tori is driven by her mother to her grandfather's rustic cabin in Eastern Manitoba on the remote American-Canadian border. As Tori struggles to adapt to the woodsman ways of her French Canadian grandfather, she ultimately must embrace the outdoors if she is to survive the deadly game of cat and mouse she is thrust into.
