    • Synopsis
    • Thirty-five years ago Matias Santana was only six when he witnesses the brutal murder of his parents, with his unborn brother, Dias, still in his mother's womb. Flash forward and the brothers have both taken up careers serving their country, Dias leading an elite police force and Matias a general in the military.

      When Dias and Matias learn that Ferreira, Angola's number one crime boss, is the same man who murdered their parents, one seeks revenge and the other justice. But Ferreira is running his operations from Cape Town, out of their jurisdiction. Now Dias and Matias must illegally cross into South Africa without getting caught and take down the man who took their parents. The only thing standing in their way is each other.
