Angel EyesThe film opens on an accident scene on a wet rainy night in Toronto. Sharon Pogue (Jennifer Lopez) is a police officer at the scene and she is holding the hand of one of the victims and pleading that he hold on, not to give up and help is on the way.
The film then switches to one year later, where Sharon is now a very bitter, angry person. The reason for her anger turns out to be because she is estranged from her family. Some time in her past she had her father Carl (Victor Argo) arrested for beating her mother Josephine (Sonia Braga). Her father and brother, Larry Sr. (Jeremy Sisto) have found it hard to forgive her and so she is more or less ostracized from her family.

Meanwhile, a man named Catch (Jim Caviezel) wanders the streets of Toronto in a Zombie-like trance, doing good deeds, trying to help anybody he meets. He turns car lights off, he tells a young woman in his apartment building that she left her keys in the door.
