Everyone in backstreet Paris knows Bob, and in some way, Bob takes care of all of them. Bob is a con-man gone straight after prison time served some 20 years ago. Always a gambler, Bob loses everything one day at the races and the casino, thus deciding to put into action one last heist before permanent retirement. (StudioCanal UK)
