It is the story of a fiercely fought election campaign, where money power and corruption are the accepted norms, and where treachery and manipulation are routinely used weapons.

The darkness that rises from their souls threatens to envelope all that they hold precious.

And its ugly underside. It is about politics. And beyond.
