"Adam" lives alone in an apartment. He makes good money and has nice possessions. "Adam" goes to his job in London where he works as a stockbroker.

Synopsis:
A man walks into a deserted location. There is a second man
tied to a chair with bruises and torn clothes.First man (who has a
shadow over his face) walks to him, interrogates man 2 and at the end,
punches him. On the first and second punch it will be a POV shot from
man 2's perspective and on the thrid punch (still in POV) it flashes
white and goes to a flashback.
The flashback lasts 8-10 seconds for it is part of the whole film and not the opening.
It goes to a flashback of the man waking up in his bed. He walks over to his shower and washes and afterwards he dresses in a suit. He makes breakfast and puts documents in his briefcase and leaves and heads to the station. He waits for the London Victoria train and boards it and heads to his job where he is a Stock Broker. He goes to his job and we hear his name finally when called by a secretary and we learn that his name is Adam. She says there is a call waiting and it's from an unknown caller, Adam talks on the phone to the unknown caller who asks him where the vault is and Adam instantly puts the phone down. When he leaves for the station he is kidnapped by two men and put into the back of the van. He is taken to a warehouse where he is interrogated. Here we meet the gang, Frankie, Ross, Jack and Iceman. Iceman is the leader and starts beating and shouting at him, asking him where the vault and where the key for the vault is and Adam doesn't talk through this brutal beating.
Iceman leaves and we get an insight into his life, he goes around intimidating other small time gang bosses into giving him money as well as robbing banks and stealing from rivals. Halfway through insight he stumbles and touches a banister in the city and a flashback occurs. Iceman is a child (around 17) now and runs up the stairs with his older brother Daniel (20s). They're running from two men who are shouting "Give back the money!" and after a while they withdraw a gun and shoot down Daniel. Iceman is crying and clutching his brother and the men walk up to him and put a gun to his head and shoots. We go back to the present and he stands in the spot he was shot and after 5 seconds walks. He goes into Adam's office and searches the place and reads a document with London hospital on it and another flashback occurs where everything is black but we hear voices. It sounds like a two women, one asking the other to bring her certain medicines and explains that he is in a coma and needs bandages for the wound as well as a small magnet and scissors to get the shrapnel out. Modern day again, he can't find anything and Adam's secretary enters and without looking Iceman draws a gun and shoots her dead and leaves.
Cut to Adam in the warehouse, he looks down at knees and flashback occurs of him as a child and his father ignoring him. After Adam begs his father to play with him his father turns and gives him a key and tells him to hide it somewhere in the house and he'll come and find it. Adam goes and hides the key in a cupboard in his bedroom. Men break into the house and he hears his father screams and he also hears gunshots. He hides in the cupboard and we are taken to the present. He looks around and Ross and Jack are talking. They talk of their mother and home. Adam looks elsewhere and sees a fist fly into his face and knocks him out cold. Another flashback, it is the past of Iceman. He wakes up from the coma and asks if his shooters were caught and he learns that they are caught. He is discharged and goes to his home, it is a squat and barren save a few beds for him and his brother. He sees his brothers bed and goes to it, he lifts it up and gets a .44 Magnum. He learns the whereabouts of the killers and books an appointment pretending to be his family. He meets them and shoots them in the meeting room. He is taken down by the guards and put in prison. He serves his time and hears the rumours. He waits months because in prison he met people to whom he trusts (not fully) and when they're out they plan this. Then it goes back to Adam who is being beat by the brothers. Iceman returns and tells them they have company and they get guns and run outside and it's the intro.
He eventually beats the info out of him and then goes outside and fights off the rival gang. He is shot and gets in a car and drive to the location and gets the key and drives to the vault. Opens it and no money is there but instead it is photos of Adam as a child and the rival gang catch up and shoot him dead. Fade's to black. Credits.
