CGiii Comment

Matko, a 42-year-old Ethiopian man, is released from prison 15 years after murdering his wife. He sets out in search for his only son who was two at the time of the murder. After finding out that his son supports himself through sex work he contemplates ways to help him.

This is a film about a man who feels that his fate was sealed in a moment and is now granted a second chance to redeem himself.
