It also focuses on the wide-ranging problems faced by the youth of this country.The youth focused on are two young hired assassins, Lionel and Dhammika, who are hiding out while their deed is on every television. The same television also shows them John Travolta's violence in Pulp Fiction--strictly amateur stuff! While they are hiding in Colombo, Bandarawela and Ahatuwewa drink, try on hip-hop clothes, befriend an upper class girl. It's only a matter of time until their acts catch up to them.
