Plot synopsis

Felix De La Pena is a hardworking armored-truck driver, a loving husband to his wife Marina and a caring father of two in Los Angeles's Boyle Heights neighborhood. After being abducted and shot in the head during a hijacking led by Adell Baldwin, Felix loses his memory, exhibits erratic post-trauma behavior, and is framed as a prime suspect for the crime.
