Some boys grow up faster than they should.
Gregg Campbell is a man under constant pressure. His past in the criminal world has left him with debts, enemies and nowhere left to turn. When a new opportunity comes along, he sees it as his chance to put things right, provide for his family and build a better future.
But that second chance comes with a cost.
And it is his sons who feel it the most.
Boar and Benson are still young, but their childhood quickly becomes a world of hard work, long hours and unforgiving expectations. Their father pushes them beyond their limits, making them work in tough, dirty conditions for little reward, all in the name of giving them a better life. When things don't go to plan, his frustration, stress and anger often spill onto them, leaving both boys carrying more than any child should have to.
At home they face a father who is tired, on edge and haunted by his past. Some days he is motivating and full of big plans, other days he is cold, harsh and impossible to please. The boys never quite know which version of their dad they will get, and they learn to tread carefully, keeping their heads down while trying to stay close.
On top of it all, school brings its own challenges. Fights, friendships, reputations and the pressure to fit in pull them in different directions. The brothers experience the highs and lows of teenage life while still dealing with the demands at home, and slowly they begin to see that they may have to make their own choices.
Through sacrifice, brotherhood, loyalty and conflicting dreams, Boar and Benson are forced to grow up fast in a world where opportunities are never simple and nobody comes without a price.
At some point, these years will shape the men they become.
But which path each brother takes... is a story still to unfold.
