The city has a lot to offer. Jobs. Money. Opportunity. It's 1987, and the urban haze has lured young George Wentworth to the centre of Toronto. But the reality is not what he had imagined. Months in, he is broke, unemployed, and disenchanted. Finally, when approached by two men with a different offer of work, he takes it, without hesitation. But as the crowd welcomes him in, George finds himself in a world he never imagined - a world of crime, drugs and deception - where mistakes are often costly.
