Director Bade Hj. Azmi wrote the film, working on its script for one-and-a-half years.[3][2] To produce the film, Rosyam Nor initially received Finas funds of RM400,000 with the rest of funding from Julie's Biscuits.[4]

Castello brings a story about Solo, a teenager raised in the Golok River. Solo married a Thai girl named Chalita. At the time of Chalita's pregnancy, he started to act as a drug trafficker to make her family's life more luxurious. But he was arrested and he was jailed for twenty years. In prison, he is known as Castello. After leaving prison, Castello tried to trace his wife and son. But he was disappointed when he learnt that his daughter Phim had become a drug addict. Castello strives to save Phim who is unaware that he is her father. One day Castello took Phim's money while the girl was dealing with drugs. Because of his overload, beyond Castello's consciousness, Phim has met drug traffickers and told him about his financial problems.

The distributor gives Phim the drugs she needs. But at the time Phim was high, she was raped by the distributors' friends as her debt to the distributor. Castello 'goes crazy' as soon as it finds Phim's destruction. He was determined to take revenge. But while struggling to defend his dignified child's dignity, Chalita (Castello's wife) was killed by the distributors' friends. Of course, Castello became angry and he acted more crazy.
