Meursault goes to Théo, a former night club owner, in prison for two years on false charges, who s being released in exchange for information about Montreal s underworld. Théo agrees to steal the bag for money and safe passage to the US for himself and his son Robin.

Their elaborate plan blows up when a guard, Marcel, takes his responsibilities too seriously. What happens to father and son? Will any of the thieves escape?
