In the film, a money transport company faces a series of armed robberies and the murders of its guards by the robbers.

The company's newest guard is welcomed for his skills, but he is secretly seeking revenge for the death of his son at the hands of the robbers.

A flashback explains the reason for his actions: he and his son accidentally witnessed a robbery on a company money transport.

After the battle, Alexandre, seriously injured, drives to the spot where his son was shot and lies down by the roadside to die.

In October 2019 it was announced that Guy Ritchie would write and direct an English language remake of the film starring Jason Statham.
