The ruthless businessman's unethical practices do not sit well with Third Master, who sees the salvation of his country in the redistribution of its massive silver cache. The tense relationship is further complicated by Third Master's undying love for his beautiful stepmother. The fate of the country and its most powerful family now lies with one idealistic young man torn between the needs of the people, the greed of his father and the love of a woman.
