The wild, true story of a 1990 bank heist in Torino was massive news in Italy and seemed to capture the nation's imagination. This star-studded caper-film, thrillingly explores the events from multiple perspectives.
Luigi, played by Giampaolo Morelli (also in 7 Hours to Win your Heart), becomes massively disillusioned when the retirement age shifts on his dead-end post-office job. He refuses to give up his dreams of South America and early retirement and plots a perfect plan. But Luigi needs accomplices to pull off his audacious crime. For a group of humble postal workers, entering the world of crime is not as easy as they imagined. Perfect workers are transformed into master criminals, but where there is money, there is also greed. The hapless novices will also need underworld connections. This hugely entertaining film with plenty of gags will also have you at the edge of your seat in the same breath. Imagine a Guy Ritchie film set in Torino.
