A journey into the dark side of gangsterism and drugs. The movie begins with a young Castello growing up surrounded by criminal activities in Sungai Golok and eventually becoming involved in them. Whilst on the rise in his criminal career, he falls for Chalita, the sister of an associate, and gets married to her.
