Julian’s nine-year-old daughter\, Sofia\, who has been diagnosed with a terminal heart disease and is scheduled for a heart transplant in two weeks\, is left in the care of her irresponsible uncle\, Nick. Knowing the possibility of never seeing his daughter alive again is real\, Julian fights to go back by any means necessary.
