Tense thriller about a janitor with brain damage who is lured into taking part in a bank heist. A car crash robs a bright young man of a golden future, leaving him with amnesia and working as a cleaner in a bank. Frustrated and lonely, he cannot believe his luck when he meets a charismatic man who sets him up with a beautiful ex-stripper. Little does he know, however, that his benefactor is in fact a gang leader who is ensnaring him to participate in a heist of the very bank in which he works.
