Plot:
Determined to get on with his life after the end of the Algerian War, instead, former medical lieutenant Dino Barran is approached by a mysterious woman and Franz Propp, a street-wise legionnaire looking for a fast buck. As the two men find themselves reluctantly reunited in Paris, lured into the basement of a prestigious and heavily guarded firm, the two frenemies must work in unison over a long Christmas weekend to crack the safe and find a way out. One of them has set his mind on getting his hands on the employees' year-end bonuses; the other wants to open the impenetrable vault to keep up his end of the bargain. However, the question remains. Is there honour among thieves?
