Plot

A group of former intelligence and military operatives comes together in Paris for a mysterious mission. The team, consisting of individuals from varying international backgrounds, is assembled by an Irish liaison named Deirdre who lays out their objective: they must acquire a coveted briefcase, the contents of which remain secret to the team. Among the mercenaries is Sam, an American with a talent for strategy and quick thinking, and Vincent, a Frenchman who considerably trusts Sam. Their expertise includes tactical skills, driving, and espionage.

The team launches a meticulously plotted attack to snatch the briefcase in Nice. As they plan and reconnoiter, tensions and suspicions among the group members rise, with each operative aware that trust can be a liability in their line of work. Their initial attempt to capture the briefcase sets off a dangerous chase, drawing them into a lethal cat-and-mouse game with rival operatives also vying for the prize. The mercenaries must navigate shifting alliances and betrayals as they confront not only their adversaries but also the mysterious significance of the briefcase they are tasked to secure.
