In the middle of a blasted heath, two parties meet for an important exchange. Records have to be set straight, a bagful of money to be paid, a prisoner to be handed over. The story progresses to reveal a threat of violence that never leaves its characters alone.

In the process, a stylized endeavor is presented to the viewer. While things seem to be going according to plan, an unexpected development, a bullet from an unseen shooter, throws everything into absolute chaos. The resultant short film becomes the first part of a longer narrative, establishing a significant character for the viewer whose life would perhaps be presented to them in subsequent parts.
