Synopsis

Joseph goes out of jail where robberies and a particular code of honour locked him for 20 years. Julie is as young and beautiful as swindler and provocative. She lives thanks to small thefts with the complicity of her boyfriend.However, Julie's father was Joseph co-prisoner before dying in prison. That's why Joseph naturally goes to his house where Julie squats at the moment. The encounter of two misled souls: Joseph who does not endure a body which abandons him as he wants for a last time to do the only thing he knows to do: a robbery; Julie who never knew her father and lives her life with the thoughtlessness of her youth. The rise of a relation torn between desire, friendship, between a father and a daughter, between a body that goes away and another exploring desires, between two lovers...A love story.Beyond a world of treason and violence, beyond a spectacular casino robbery will rise a unique story, a story which belongs only to them... to Joseph and the girl ...
