2009: As the economic crisis tightens its grip on Italy, Giorgio Farina, heir to a prestigious gun shop in Brianza, risks losing everything after investing a fortune in opening a luxury boutique in Switzerland.
Buried in debt and obsessed with preserving his reputation, Giorgio gets drawn into a scheme by Alberto Fumagalli, an eccentric businessman who proposes a plan involving embezzlement. Their encounter gives rise to an unlikely alliance: Fumagalli pulls Giorgio into a world where the rules seem to have a different meaning and where every problem can become an opportunity.
What seems like an easy way out, however, turns into a spiral of secrets and dangers that threatens his family, his honor, and everything he has always tried to protect.
