A year has passed since Elias walked away. Vincent, former assistant to a crime boss, has reinvented his life: now he studies photography at a prestigious university, seeking order through his lens.

That new classmate, oblivious to his history, unexpectedly captures his attention. Maybe it's insignificant, or perhaps it's the start of something Vincent wasn't looking for.
