Synopsis
He had the looks, combined with his friends' respect. A real ladies man. But that was a long time ago, before the gambling started. Now it's all gone, except for one thing: his smart, loyal and doting young son. In spite of fearing his father's violence towards his mother, the boy reveals her secret plan to leave them both. A severe beating ends with the boy's mother locked up. He eventually ends up alone with his father--forced to help pay gambling debts by becoming a petty thief. His resistance is futile, and he eventually ends up in a juvenile detention center. During a visit, the boy leaves his father with a missing ear in a violent attack. A decade later, the now grown-up son returns to his hometown. As he walks the empty streets, he sees a man in the distance that might just be his father.
