Vicki has waited thirteen years to find a home for her and her son Marley. When she is finally granted a new apartment in the glistening newly built Sky Towers complex, it is a dream come true. But the Sky Towers are segregated into Block A, the luxury block for billionaire owners, and Block B, the social housing for people like Vicki. The towers are connected by the perspex sky pool that spans the top floors of both buildings. It can only be accessed by residents of Tower Block A, while Block B families look up from below. When a one-off pool party brings both factions together, different lives and personalities collide with devastating results. And when the sun rises in the morning, it illuminates the tragic sight of a body floating in the pool. How far would you go to secure a home for your family? And what would you do to someone standing in your way?
