Hostages Without Risk

A French comedy with a criminal twist.

Marc is a writer admired by women who has had nothing to write about for a long time and decides to end his life. He is surprised by his old friend Luc - who once attempted suicide when his girlfriend left him, and now wants to do the same because she has returned to him.

Their plans are disrupted by three fleeing amateur robbers with a bag full of money. They burst into the apartment, take both men hostage and threaten to kill them - but that is exactly what Marc and Luc desire. The sight of a full bag of banknotes, however, awakens their will to live. Marc's creative imagination suddenly springs back to life, the robbers need a plan, and the police are waiting outside the door.
