Walter, an ordinary factory worker, obsessing over the mistreatment of victims by the courts becomes a vigilante for justice.

He has no particular skill-sets qualifying him to fight crime. He relies on cunning, isolation, and his hunting and tracking skills to take down targets and bring about his form of justice. A kaleidoscope of dreams and apparitions thrusts Walter into a nightmarish world where the lines of good and evil are discernible.
