Synopsis
A small mobster with no real stature, Bastien Sassey is tasked by a certain Stan with transporting a football filled with drugs. Believing to work for the common good, he lets Stan's gang replace drugs with simple powder. But, following a combination of circumstances, Bastien's ball fails in the hands of a gang of children. Bastien only has a short time to get his hands on the ball, especially since it does not contain harmless powder… but a bomb.
