A small, picturesque country is controlled by high-ranking criminals, people linked to politics, mafia, police, judges, and big business. A teenage drug addict escapes from a resocialization centre wanting to complain about being forced into sex and drug abuse at the police, but she is sent away. She finds a journalist who unravels an incredible web of crime, gangsters, and extortion. A talented politician becomes prime minister and controls the whole country, as people in power also control the police and government contracts. A small-time black marketeer becomes a major blackmailer, using people as pawns on a chessboard. Can truth ever prevail among people who only care for money and power? Or does God turn a blind eye to murder and greed?
