Synopsis
When he is informed of the death of his son Julien, Romain Dupré goes to Canada to identify the body.  The dead man turns out not be Dupré’s son, but a stranger who, for some reason, is carrying Julien’s identification papers.  Dupré soon discovers that his son has been involved in people trafficking, smuggling illegal immigrants into the United States from Canada.  The dead man is one of Julien’s latest clients, who died in a shoot-out at a police checkpoint.  Currently, Julien is on the run, pursued not only by the police but by gangsters who are determined to recover some money that belongs to them...
