The acting is superb, the decors so real and lifelike, the dialog wonderful, the characters, people whom we all know and have met during our lifetime. But could someone tell me what the movie is about ? What's the storyline ? I haven't got a clue what the film is about ? Answers on a postcard please..............

Greed, corruption, imperialism, classism, the ugly side of capitalism/cronyism in a nutshell. One man's journey into and back out of the abyss and deciding to redeem himself and speak out against it and expose "the bastards" rather than be just another pawn and sell out in their scheme.
