Synopsis

Spoiler shield

Three respectable citizens of a Swiss winter sports resort find themselves in financial trouble due to a lack of snow. When Paul, René, and Werner find the plan for the perfect bank robbery at the home of their deceased curling friend Heinz, they are willing to take the risk after some initial hesitation. Preparations are in full swing. They didn't expect their love lives to be completely turned upside down in the process. Finally, the three men manage to break into the bank... The surprise is great when the vault door opens!
