Synopsis

Searching for a reasonably-priced home, young couple Alex and Virginia end up putting down a deposit on an un-built ocean-view condo. On paper, it is their dream home with it two bedrooms, kitchen, living room with fireplace, and a balcony. It might be small in size but the view will be amazing. A year later, the condo is still unfinished, and because of zoning laws, it will be illegal. Together with other victims, Alex forms a group to battle against the deceitful company that sold them a bill of goods. Soon, the struggle begins to affect Alex's personal life -- he is no longer able to afford the rent on their current apartment, and he and Virginia are forced to move in with her parents. Getting to such a low point, Alex decides that stronger measures are necessary.
