The 132-minute movie revolves around Nazri, a police officer from the Narcotics Department, who starts to realise that the drug syndicate led by Tony Ifrit, involved in the distribution of methamphetamine, is becoming more and more rampant, often evading the clutches of the law during the judicial process. Nazri decides to resolve the issue himself.

When the "Meth Killer" case gains public attention, the Inspector-General of Police assigns Sheriff to solve it, suspecting that the Meth Killer might be hiding among the ranks of the Narcotics Department itself.
