Lock is a story about a man named Gurnam (Gippy Grewal) who comes from a small village in Punjab and dreams of settling in Canada. He gets married to Jaot (Geeta Basra), who shares his dream of a better life abroad. Gurnam borrows money from a local money lender to pay for his visa and travel expenses, and promises to repay the loan within a month of reaching Canada.

However, things take a turn for the worse when Gurnam reaches Canada and realizes that he has been duped by a travel agent who promised him a job and work permit. With no job and no money, Gurnam is forced to work for a local gangster, who gives him the responsibility of transporting drugs across the border. Gurnam’s wife becomes worried about the sudden change in her husband’s behavior and tries to find out the truth behind his involvement in drug trafficking.
