After getting screwed over by life (again), two losers decide that enough is enough. Using stolen ski masks and stolen toy guns, they take hostages in their local bank, holding them for ransom. Things go well until the hostages learn what's going on, and demand a piece of the action for themselves.

VIBE

A chaotic, darkly funny ride where desperation meets absurdity. Expect low-stakes hijinks and a DIY aesthetic that amplifies the sheer, unadulterated failure of it all. It's a wild, unpredictable romp.
