Film Synopsis

Pier Ulmann scrapes a pitiful living by doing odd jobs and indulging in a spot of petty crime now and again.  An embittered man, he closes his mind to the past and thinks only of his present, precarious existence with his partner Rachid.  One day, his past catches up with him when he learns that his father has dropped down dead in the street after a long period of decline.  His cousin Gabi is keen to re-establish contact with him and it is through him that Pier learns the circumstances of his father's death.  It seems evident to him that his uncle drove his father to his grave to gain control of the family diamond business in Antwerp.  Adding this to his previous grievances against his family, Pier decides the time has come to have his revenge, assisted by his ever-faithful Rachid...
