SHATTERPROOF

WATTYS 2021 WINNER - WILD CARD CATEGORY

Shin Takano was once a ruthless gang leader, a man who thrived in the shadows of crime, surrounded by wealth, violence, vices, and fleeting pleasures. Fearless and merciless, he ruled the streets, living each day as if it were his last-because in his world, tomorrow was never promised.

But everything changed the day he met Eva; the woman who would carry his children and alter the course of his life forever.

The moment his twins were born, Shin saw a different kind of future; one where he wasn't a criminal but a father, a husband, a son worth being proud of. He abandoned his past, turned away from crime, and embraced the life of an honest man. He fought to become the man his children deserved, believing he had finally escaped the sins of his past.

But karma never forgets.

His father was murdered in cold blood.

His wife walked away, leaving him and their twins behind, never looking back.

One by one, he lost everything; his job, his home, and his dignity. Reduced to sleeping in the back of delivery trucks and church benches, he clung to his children, the only light in his collapsing world.

Yet fate was not done punishing him.

His son, Stanley, fell gravely ill, spending more time in hospital beds than at home.

His daughter, Steyah, was abducted and brutalized by a man from Shin's past; a ghost he had tried to outrun.

Consumed by guilt, Shin wished for nothing more than to turn back time. To make different choices. To be a better man before it was too late.

And then... he was given the impossible.

A miracle.

One chance to rewrite the past.

But with only one moment to change, one decision to alter-who does he save? What does he undo? Which regret does he erase?

The clock is ticking.

This time, he must choose wisely.
