The Nowhere Man

—Lukas, a former Special Forces mercenary crippled by PTSD, drifts through Johannesburg's back streets, surviving as a waste picker and crafting metal sculptures to support the shelter he calls home. He avoids attention, as he prefers a life lived in the margins, going unseen and unnoticed. But one morning, Lukas witnesses a home invasion and has no choice but to get involved. Forced back into the very world he's been trying to escape, Lukas must confront his past or risk losing the people he loves.

  • Haunted by his days as a mercenary, Lukas lives in the shadows, scraping together a living as a waste picker; after overhearing a cry for help while scavenging, he is thrust back into a world of violence he thought he'd left behind.

  • Phumza shatters Lukas and Neo's fragile refuge at the homeless shelter, unleashing tragedy and igniting Lukas's hunger for vengeance; all the while, a child is desperately fighting for survival.

  • Lukas goes undercover to save a missing teenager from a deadly underground fighting ring, only to be reunited with a ghost from his past - a close army friend who isn't the man he used to be.

  • Lukas faces one of his most significant challenges yet: betrayal; pushed to the edge, Lukas must summon every last ounce of his resolve to save a precious life.

  • Lukas' past comes barreling back, as he realizes he has been misled; in uncovering a deadly diamond-smuggling ring, he must now unravel a web of deceit from his years as a soldier.
