Overview
When Ulderico and Raffaele, two frustrated precarious workers, discover a bound and gagged man in their storeroom, they decide to do only one thing: not call the police, because all the evidence would be against them. But handling the situation on their own is the beginning of a nightmare worse than their already miserable realities.
