Two young street punk Sai and Boney tries to rob a bank, at the same time, a cold-blooded and brutal criminal Sunny Koo also steps into the scene. Tension developos between the three parties, Sai and Boney, Sunny, and the cops outside the bank. Any delay of time could lead to death of the hostages. The cops have to plan wisely to rescue all of them within in the short limit. Tension and hostility gradually builds inside the cage, and for survival people would do whatever they have to. However, things get even more complicated when Sunny's inner-self contradicts with his wrongdoings.
