After a life of faithful grind, Saul feels compromised by the authoritarian figures in whom he has placed his unconditional trust. However, his belief in the system is undermined when the Pillars of Society have an adverse reaction to his affair with the mysterious Leah, a former co-worker at the behemoth government agency in which Saul works. What results is a deadly domino effect of outrageous acts of moral turpitude and betrayal that lead to a redemptive encounter with Nature. Saul must dig deep to find the courage and fortitude he never knew he had in order to overcome adversity and survive death. His journey is the story of an everyman in which love leads to disaster, paving the way to deep, authentic reflection. Only when Saul becomes hopelessly lost does he finally find his true self.
