A group of criminals and corrupt cops are blackmailed by Russian-Israeli mobster Irina Vlaslov (Winslet) into pulling off an exceptionally difficult heist, but they manage to come up with a plan that could see them succeeding – however, it may cost the life of rookie officer Chris Allen (Affleck) in the process…
