Amidst the mean streets of Auckland, Beth Heke (Rena Owen) lives with her husband Jake (Temuera Morrison) and their three children in a tenement house for native Maori. Jakes battle with alcoholism frequently results in terrifyingly violent outbursts, but Beths unwavering devotion prevents her from seeing how much his rage is destroying their family until it is nearly too late.
