Have you ever wondered what life would be like if you went through it with childlike nonchalance? Have you ever wondered whether you should pursue happiness, or happily pursue life? Have you ever felt tormented by the trivial and the profound? Welcome to the world of Achet. Achet hails from a small town. Having excelled at whatever the world threw at him, he is set to climb the tallest corporate ladders around. But he doesn’t know what he wants from life. His desire to explore life and his work take him to Singapore. And thus begins the journey of self-discovery. Despite the hectic schedule at work he finds the time to cynically size up those around him, experiment with drugs, lie for cheap thrills, display a complete disregard for professional ethics, almost commit career-suicide and … a cold-blooded murder. Is there salvation for Achet? If so, is the price too high? Find out for yourself.
