Film Synopsis

Franck Spadone is a pickpocket who takes his profession very seriously.  Crime is a serious business and there can be no place for complacency, as he often points out to his associates, Bruno and Pablo.  But one day Franck throws caution to the wind and breaks his own rules, by taking pity on one of his victims, strip-tease artiste Laura.  What Franck does not know is that the alluring Laura is an accomplice in a gangland killing.  Within no time, he finds himself caught up in a fierce gang war...
