The Burglars
“Catch the burglars!”
ActionCrimeThriller
In Athens a collection of emeralds is successfully stolen by a team of robbers, led by safe-cracker Azad. Things go smoothly until they miss the ship by which they planned their escape; a police chief pursues Azad while he waits for the next ship to set off.
VIBE
A sun-baked, morally ambiguous crime thriller. This feels like a sweaty, tense cat-and-mouse game played out in the dusty, forgotten corners of Athens. Expect double-crosses and a palpable sense of impending doom.
