Chatila and Reda are saving to pay for fake passports to get out of Athens. But when Reda loses their hard-earned cash to his dangerous drug addiction, Chatila hatches an extreme plan, which involves them posing as smugglers and taking hostages in an effort to get him and his best friend out of their hopeless environment before it is too late.

ಚಟಿಲಾ ಮತ್ತು ರೆದ ಅಥೆನ್ಸ್‌ ಬಿಟ್ಟು ದೂರ ಹೋಗಬೇಕೆಂಬ ಹಠದಲ್ಲಿ ನಕಲಿ ಪಾಸ್‌ಪೋರ್ಟ್‌ ಮಾಡಿಸುವ ಸಲುವಾಗಿ ಹಣ ಕೂಡಿಡುತ್ತಿದ್ದಾರೆ. ಆದರೆ ರೆದ ಕಷ್ಟಪಟ್ಟು ಕೂಡಿಟ್ಟ ಹಣವನ್ನು ಮಾದಕದ್ರವ್ಯ ಸೇವನೆಯ ಚಟದಿಂದಾಗಿ ಕಳೆದುಕೊಳ್ಳುತ್ತಾನೆ. ಈ ಸಮಯದಲ್ಲಿ ಚಟಿಲಾ ಯೋಜನೆಯೊಂದನ್ನು ರೂಪಿಸುತ್ತಾನೆ. ಕಳ್ಳಸಾಗಣೆದಾರನಂತೆ ನಟಿಸುವುದು ಹಾಗೂ ಕೆಲವರನ್ನು ಒತ್ತೆಯಾಳಾಗಿ ಇಟ್ಟುಕೊಂಡು ತನ್ನನ್ನೂ ಹಾಗೂ ತನ್ನ ಸ್ನೇಹಿತನನ್ನು ಆದಷ್ಟು ಬೇಗ ಬಿಡುಗಡೆ ಮಾಡಿಸಿ, ಈ ಜಾಗದಿಂದ ದೂರ ಹೋಗುವುದು.
