9th Step is a drama about reconciliation and forgiveness. A father, who unexpectedly gets custody of his teenage daughter, has a second chance to gain back her trust and rebuild their relationship.

After a turbulent decade of deep addiction, Linas' life is finally on track. However, after a sudden custody agreement, Linas finds himself living with his estranged seventeen-year-old daughter Ieva. Both Linas and Ieva struggle to accept the new household dynamics and as much as Linas is trying to rebuild their relationship, Ieva is unforgiving. Ieva's rebellious friend, Maya - dealing with her own family issues - takes refuge at their place where Linas welcomes the distraction and her playfulness. Whilst Maya's loyalty lies with her friend, she feels attracted to Linas and starts showing up at his apartment unannounced. Sensing the danger with Maya and questioning his instincts, Linas tries to focus on being a better father to Ieva instead. As the lines between the three get increasingly blurred, each must find a way back to morality and forgiveness.
