The Four Corners Monument marks the quadripoint in the Southwestern United States where the states of Arizona, Colorado, New Mexico, and Utah meet. It is the only point in the United States shared by four states, leading to the area being named the Four Corners region.

Ricardo's only father-figure is a cop, Tito Hanekom (Abduragman Adams), who is consumed with tracking down a serial killer responsible for the disappearance of a number of young boys from the area. London-trained doctor, Leila Domingo (Lindiwe Matshikiza), arrives in Cape Town for the funeral of her estranged father. Uncertain about the direction her life should take, Leila's path becomes increasingly intertwined with Farakhan's after she realizes he was the boy she grew up with as a child.
