The work of a deft pickpocketing team forms the focus for the French thriller FRANCK SPADONE. Bruno (Christophe Le Masne) and Franck Spadone (Stanislas Merhar) are the team in question, running a seemingly infallible operation that nets them a princely sum day after day. Things go awry when Spadone falls for one of his victims, a radiant stripper named Laura (Monica Bellucci). But stripping brings some ties which the lusty libertine finds hard to deal with, most notably Laura's overbearing boss, Ferdinand (Carlo Brandt). Suddenly embroiled in Laura and Ferdinand's scheme to murder a local mobster, who takes a hefty share of the club's profits, Spadone finds himself sailing into deep criminal waters. Torn between his affections for Laura and a longing for his former, simpler life, Franck Spadone has to take a good, hard look at himself before deciding which course of action to take.
