Cuba is in jail and will be released soon.

He still can't come to terms with what he did: he beat his ex-girlfriend Marina to hospital. Cuba is supported by his cellmate Jorgo, who encourages him to ask Marina for forgiveness. In return, Jorgo wants Cuba to help him break out. Just a little. Just position the getaway car. Cuba agrees.

Back in freedom, Cuba begins the fight against his addiction to drugs and crime. While searching for Marina, he finds out that she is living a new, middle-class life with another man. Not wanting to destroy this life for her, Cuba gives up the idea of reconciliation, with her and devotes himself entirely to coke. Moreover, now he doesn't want to just give Jorgo the getaway car, but to go along with the whole escape.
But suddenly Marina comes forward and confronts Cuba with a surprise: while he was in prison, their common son was born. Cuba doesn't know how to deal with the new situation. On the one hand, he wants to lead a regular life for his son, but on the other hand, he doesn't want to abandon Jorgo. His plan: steal the coke from his drug-addicted friends, sell the stuff and hire a driver with the proceeds.

From now on, Cuba leads a double life. Half the day he tries to get a normal job, the other half he sells the stolen coke. He looks for ways to appease his angry friends, and at the same time tries to figure out what a father actually is. Cuba wants to reconcile everything - and no one is happy with him.
