Jacob Petersen has dedicated his life to helping street children in India. When the orphanage he heads is threatened by closure, he receives an unusual offer. A Danish businessman, Jørgen, offers him a donation of $4 million dollars. There are, however, certain conditions...

The wedding proves to be a critical juncture between past and future and catapults Jacob into the most intense dilemma of his life.
