This drama centers on a British police detective nearing his limit after years of relentless pursuit of justice. During a difficult interrogation of a suspect accused of severe crimes against children, the detective's mental state unravels.

The film explores the psychological toll of extreme pressure and questions the boundaries of justice when personal integrity is at stake.
