Plot

In the serene life of Luc Segers (Koen De Bouw), every piece falls in its perfect place. Residing in an exquisite house with his beloved wife Ella and their sweet daughter Anna, and on the cusp of becoming the CEO of a thriving logistics company, Luc's existence is picture-perfect. However, his world shatters into pieces when, upon returning from a company celebration, a pit stop for gas turns into a nightmarish ordeal. Tragically, a violent mugger brutally takes the lives of Ella and Anna, leaving Luc in a coma, teetering between life and death. Awakening three weeks later, Luc is haunted by the horrifying truth of his loss. Driven by a desperate need for justice, he identifies the perpetrator and enlists the help of a top-tier lawyer to ensure the criminal pays. But when a legal technicality sets the murderer free, Luc's faith in the system crumbles. Deaf to his lawyer's counsel, he resolves to take justice into his own hands, shooting the mugger in an act of retribution. Custody and trial await Luc Segers; his story becomes a media circus, stirring public sympathy in his favor. But the Attorney General is relentless, seeking to convict Luc at all costs. Against the advice of his lawyer, Luc gambles with a high-stakes strategy, risking life imprisonment for a slim chance of acquittal. This audacious move is more than just personal vindication—it's Luc's ultimate revenge against a flawed justice system that failed him and many others. His gamble triumphs, and Luc Segers walks free. But freedom comes with a heavy price. He's forever chained to the haunting memories of his past and the guilt of taking law into his own hands— a free man who will never truly escape his past.
