Mario is an unemployed engineer, a victim of the economic crisis. Discouraged by job advertisements that do not reflect his capabilities and demoralized by numerous financial deadlines, he decides to organize the heist of the century. The police has just stored in a military facility the largest quantity of cannabis ever seized in Switzerland, and it will be burned shortly. Mario plans to substitute it with common hay without anybody noticing: if the evidence simply disappears, so does the crime... Searching for trustworthy members of his gang, Mario brings together Ivan, Augusto, Leo, Monica and 'The Professor', each of them more desperate than the other and convinced to have found the 'green gold' that will change their lives.
