Plot summary
"JB has recently been released from San Quentin prison in San Francisco after serving a 30-year sentence. Society has changed a lot since he went inside, and it’s not easy for him to find his place – especially since his jail term and the reason for it are like a weight on his shoulders. When has a person actually atoned for a crime?" (the production company's synopsis)
