This is the job they have all been waiting for. The job that will set them up for life. Five people - four men and a woman - have a master plan to steal the million-dollar payroll carried by an armoured truck. The truck is a new, extremely secure design. A million dollars split five ways, who wouldn't be interested? The only catch is that it's the very definition of impossible... or is it? Morgan, the leader of the gang, is convinced that, because everyone believes that nobody in their right mind would try to steal its cargo, people will get complacent and make mistakes - giving him and his four associates the chance to bring off an "impossible" robbery. Armed with a brilliant plan, they think they can crack it. But as tensions in the group begin to mount and things start to go wrong, the million dollars feels more out of reach than ever. Even though it is right with them....
