Synopsis

Adamo is a young man living in Antwerp. His roots are Moroccan-Italian. He and his friends deal soft drugs. Their cover is the pizzeria of their uncle Farid. They then plan to concentrate on selling hard drugs. They agree with drug lord Orlando Marie to pick up a shipment of cocaine smuggled via the port of Antwerp. When they are almost caught by two policemen, they are forced to dump the cocaine in the river Scheldt.

Adamo retrieves part of the cocaine and starts selling it. The two policemen also find part of the drugs and set up a drugs swindle. Orlando starts a manhunt to retrieve his money.
