About the film:
Thomas is relaxing on the beach one day when his dog suddenly gets away from him. Instinctively, he runs after his pet but naively abandons his backpack only to return to find it stolen. The thieves use his wallet money to buy drugs and one begins to overdose. Through random occurrence, Thomas finds them during the panic of the overdose and rushes them to the hospital. When they arrive, he finds that his stolen iPod has returned to him from slipping out of one of the thieves pocket thus revealing who he has just saved. Bitterly, he confronts them in the hospital lobby and only asks the location of his backpack. On his way out, he overhears a news flash on t.v. declaring the flight he was going to be on that night has crashed.
