Plot

Set in Rome, Davide Marengo's crime story revolves around two main characters, a female thief, Leila (Mezzogiorno), whose modus operandi of looting her victims is by administering drugs or seducing them, and a lonely bus driver, Franz (Mastandrea), who is up to his neck in debt. The real story advances when the duo happens to come into possession of a valuable microchip valued at 4 million euros. The film's plot comes across more twists as a pair of hardened criminals, Garafano (Pannofino) and Diolaiti (Citran), and a retired intelligence officer, Carlo Matera (Fantastichini), enter the scene.[3]

Cast

gollark: Isn't that a *bad* thing?
gollark: I mean, I've *visited* Russia, which is... somewhat authoritarian? but that's basically the extent of it.
gollark: Indeed. I also don't want to.
gollark: Which is to say, you probably can do it but it would also be very bad.
gollark: No, not really. If you give some entity control of speech it will be abused horribly.
