Thomas — is the unfortunate alarm salesman who gets a dose for an attempt to «borrow» money from the apartment of one of the clients. In jail he makes up a story that he is a famous safecracker named Marquis —, the legendary lock picker whom no one knows by sight. This «white lie» helps him to become prison authority and provides a comfortable bit. But the rumor about the legendary safecracker was growing even outside the prison and a week before the long-awaited freedom, «commandos» kidnap Thomas during a walk, put to sleep and pack if a box with a foam rubber. When Thom wakes up he finds himself in the Philippine capital Manila surrounded by harsh and not too friendly gangsters. «Marquis» receives «an offer he cannot refuse». He has to steal $200 million that U.S. Reserve prepares to transport by aircraft to the United States. He needs to «as little as» open super complex brand new safe escorted by dozens of armed guards. Thomas has only two ways to save his life: to escape or to steal &200 million. And both ways seem equally impossible.
