Storia
A woman and her lover, small-time thugs, decide to kidnap a wealthy computer company owner for a substantial ransom. They recruit two accomplices: a tech-savvy individual and a muscle man who amuses himself by playing Russian roulette. During the kidnapping, an accidental killing occurs—the victim turns out to be the wife of a powerful U.S. senator, raising the stakes significantly. As events unfold, it becomes evident that not everything is as it originally seemed, with potential implications reaching beyond the initial criminal plan.
