Brussels. Homicide detective Leo Woeste lives together with his girlfriend Kathleen and her five year old son Jack. Day after day Leo is confronted with the grim underbelly of the city. He tries to protect himself by balancing his job with his family life.

When Kathleen gets pregnant unexpectedly, Leo starts loosing control. He accepts one last case, the murder of a young Congolese he can't seem to solve. There's his new hedonistic colleague Johnny Rimbaud and the affair with Aysha, the attractive victim's sister.Everything seems to pull him away from Kathleen and from his role as a father, deeper and deeper into the waste land.
