Synopsis

When Levi, an enforcer for a small time criminal faces a personal and professional crisis, his life coils into surveillance and insanity. After a failed execution attempt at the hands of unknown assailants, Levi spends winter recovering in the home of his mother who is simultaneously recovering in the hospital. When Levi receives an ominous voicemail it is clear the life he is living cannot continue. The little security he has is threatened and he flees society to start a new life in the woods. He finds himself reborn until a sense of surveillance creeps back in. When Levi is confronted by a volunteer scout leader, he proves it was simply his environment that had changed not his character. After Levi descends into old ways he returns to the city finding himself in familiar company. It isn't long before old enemies return to finish the unfinished. Levi delves deeper into the woods where the fragility of his psyche is fully realised. He finds he cannot outrun himself .
