2021

Johari or Joe is an Anti Money Laundering Analyst at an international bank in Kuala Lumpur. His job is to monitor and report money laundering activities among account holders at his bank. After being fired, Joe becomes desperate to find money. Joe reunites with his former lover, Amy, a prominent criminal defense lawyer. Amy wants to use Joe's expertise in banking and money laundering to transfer her clients' money who are trying to escape high tax rates. Tempted by the high salary offer, Joe agrees to work with Amy. Through Joe's expertise, their clients are able to transfer money out of the country without being detected by Bank Negara. Joe's expertise and Amy's efficiency begin to attract the attention of Wong, the leader of a major organized crime syndicate in KL that has networks of criminal activities such as prostitution, drugs, loan sharking and gambling. Wong orders Joe and Amy to 'launder' his illegal business money worth hundreds of thousands every month.
