Richard Yu, a typical fop,hits a passers-by when drink-driving and is sentenced to one year in jail.
Contrary to what the outside world believes, life behind bars is not full of atrocity. Much to his surprise, it is a secluded world of its kind.This world has its own rules; the survival tip from his cellmate Uncle Tat says it all, "give way, and ger a way." As one learns the rules of survival, one can pass his time peacefully in jail.
Uncle Tat teaches Richard many survival tactics, which helps him get by pretty well. Another friend Wu also watches over him, but Wu commits suicide before his release. Much to Richard's grief, it is rumoured that the insult of his daughter the outside world induces Wu's death. The prime suspect in Richard's mind is the newly transferred cellmate Jack. He's not only against Richard in all aspects but also acts like a tyrant in jail., even the cell bosses Seatto and Coyote are somewhat fearful of him.
HIs half a year jail life allows Richard to realise his shortcomings in the past, disappointing his loving mother and is ungrateful to Mayo, his girlfriend of four years.
After experiencing a series of event, Richard's release date finally comes. He is like a baby reborn to this world, learning to live a new life.
