    • Synopsis
    • Nicolas is a police officer who is about to carry out a major operation to catch Vasili Strovosky, a Russian mafia boss. However, Vasili manages to escape, warned by an informant within the authorities. With his operation foiled, Nico finds a cell phone where Vasili sends him a message with photos of his wife's corpse.

      Consumed by anger and sorrow, Nico only thinks of avenging his wife's intellectual killer. But Vasili dies when the small plane he is escaping in explodes in the air, supposedly destroyed by the Colombians. Nico is dismissed from the police force and devotes himself to taking care of his young daughter, Sol, who is still a baby.

      Several years later, he becomes involved in organizing underground fights and training his pupils, Igor and Natasha, the latter of whom he has a romantic relationship with. One morning during training, his former police chief, accompanied by a young rookie from the department named Paola, shows up at the gym. They come to ask for his help with a case, but Nico's refusal and resentment are immediate, as he believes that the police department gave Vasili the location of his house after his wife's death. As a result, the police officers leave without any results.

      Meanwhile, Sol, now a teenager, convinces her father to let her sleep over at one of her two best friends' houses. While at her friend's house, she is persuaded by her friends to go to a nightclub without her father's knowledge. At the club, she is drugged and kidnapped by a group involved in human trafficking and drug trade.

      When Sol is kidnapped for sexual trafficking, Nico must rescue her before her trail goes cold. He assembles a team outside the law, as he does not trust the corrupt police authorities. Against the clock and with limited resources, Nico embarks on a frantic journey to finally save what he loves most in the world, even if it means playing a deadly game in a Lawless struggle
