A Polish parliamentarian is kidnapped in Afghanistan. Via Al-Jazeera his hostage-takers demand ransom money amounting to millions. The problem of how one might come up with such amounts is regarded as a fantastic opportunity by Marek and the elderly "professor", two resourceful swindlers. In detention they draw up a plan to escape, in order that they might take revenge against those who put them in prison in the first place. When they are offered the chance to forge the amount needed to ransom the kidnapped politician freedom appears to be within grasp. Will the bold plan actually work out though? A pulsating, intelligently produced political film, full of digs at the corrupt circles of government officials - a Polish answer to OCEAN´S ELEVEN.
