Rose has convinced Rorke to invest in Cobblers Bar and Grill, a local tavern in a mining town south of Johannesburg, after the sale of their former workplace. Changing from corporate careers to entrepreneurship presents unique challenges.
The nation enters its third year of majority rule, while the Springboks triumph in the 1995 World Cup. Although the newlyweds are happy, there are worrisome national issues.
Their business reflects the escalating violence in the country. Minor provocations lead to physical fights among regulars, regardless of gender. The ongoing conflict and deep-rooted prejudices arise from differences in race, beliefs, and gender.
Will Rose and Rorke's love and resilience be enough to weather the storm? Or will the dream they built be torn apart by the surrounding chaos?
