Synopsis: The story centers on two car thieves, brothers, who journey to the south of France for new opportunities and wind up in the cross hairs of the local crime boss. Andrew and Garrett Foster (Scott Eastwood and Freddie Thorp) are thieves who specialize in luxury cars, only the most expensive cars. They've been hired to steal a gorgeous Bugatti 1937 valued million euros, so they head to the south of France for the job. But they get caught, and Jacomo Morier (Simon Abkarian), the local crime boss who owns the Bugatti, doesn't take it lightly. In exchange for their lives the two brothers will have to steal a car from Max Klemp (Clemens Schick), Morier's arch-rival, and not any car, Morier wants them to steal Klemp's 1962 Ferrari 250 GTO, his most prized car.

Okay, then. Just a little

bit of help, please.

Five grand. It's my final offer.

What?

They don't speak English?

I tried to tell you, but...

You knew about this, didn't you?

No.

You're a wanker.

Five grand. We're good, then.

Of course. Always.

That's women for you!

Who's that?

Hey, who are you?

You're gonna swing that thing?

Go ahead.

Except I understand you wanna

get in with Max klemp.

I can help with that.

Hey, I asked you a question.

My name is Laurent.

Well, this was lovely, Laurent.

Morier.

Laurent morier.

I'm jacomo morier's

first cousin.

I believe you had a nice day

of skeet shooting with him.

He asked me to join up with you.

Help you with whatever

you have planned.

So, you mean, spy on us

and report back to him.

Exactly.

Let me ask you, who

is your contact

inside Max klemp's organization?

I'll tell you.

It's me.

How?

I know a guy who knows a guy.

The guy I know is kuhn.

Does dirty work for klemp

but he cannot ignore

an easy score.

Mr. kuhn.

What the hell do you

want, Laurent morier?

I have a business proposition

you might be interested in.

And what's your cousin

think of you being here?

What my cousin doesn't know is

what my cousin doesn't know.

What are your names? Foster.

I'm Garrett, and this

is my brother, Andrew.

That's cute. Who's in charge?

I am.

I got this one, boys.

Okay, here's the deal.

These guys are the two best

drivers in the business.

We can steal anything

with an engine.

Armored trucks, high-end

delivery vans...

Why don't we just show you?

Wait.

If we pull a job for you,

we get an introduction.

To whom? Max klemp.

I don't know Max klemp.

Come on.

Well, that's too bad.

Wait.

Here. Hold that.

Now he's just showing off.

Get back in here.

Are you done yet?

Good.

But enough games. Take

a look out there.

See that cargo plane?

It's a vehicle with

an engine, right?

I want you to stop it.

Now.

What?

Listen, that's not

what we meant.

If that plane takes off, then

you can forget about Max klemp.

Garrett? Yeah.

You see that plane about

to take off? Yeah.

Don't let it.

Really?

Where are you going?

To watch you.

What the hell are you doing?

We've got a plane to catch.

You can watch from right here.

Stop! Stop!

Garrett, get out in front of it.

Yeah, I'm on it.

What the hell?

Congratulations.

You just robbed one of Max

klemp's private planes.

He owns this airstrip

and everything in it.

I'm quite sure he'll be looking

for an introduction to you now.

You've got some balls.

Good for you.

My pilot, on the other

hand, was weak.

I can't stand the weak.

So you two took kuhn for a bit of a ride?

Something like that.

Do you know how much a

new propeller costs?

We're worth it, though, if I may, Mr.

Klemp.

My brother and i have pulled

jobs on all five continents.

Your car collection is legendary.

We can help you add to it.

Any car, any time.

We're not rookies.

I think our work

speaks for itself.

You can easily hire the gutter

punks down in Marseille

to steal what needs stealing,

but if you want it done right...

Well,

we have a reputation.

You.

Me?

No, the one without the mouth,

the big guy. Come here.

Come on, big guy.

Hold this nail for me.

You know, my brother really

handles the negotiation.

There's nothing to negotiate.

You see, i don't care about reputation

or how good you think you are.

I care about one thing.

Trust.

There are not many people

in this town you can trust.

What makes you think

you're one of them?

We're not from this town.

Neither am I.

You can buy trust, Mr. klemp.

Respect, on the other hand,

you can't put a price on that.

I'll be in touch.

Thank you.

You know what?

Something wrong?

I'm a car enthusiast.

You wanna see my garage.

Don't you think i know that

you're jacomo morier's cousin?

Second cousin. Second cousin.

I think.

I never get those things right.

First cousin once

removed, second cousin...

Why are you here?

Look, Mr. klemp...

Let him answer.

Two years ago, i went to

my cousin to ask for work.

In front of all his

men, he spun me around,

kicked me in the ass.

Told me to go beg for scraps

in someone else's junkyard.

Said our blood meant

nothing to him.

Let me tell you something, Mr.

Klemp.

When an opportunity comes along

where he's standing

on a cliff's edge,

I'll be the one to push.

Is that so?

Beautiful.

Gto 250.

I haven't seen one of these

outside a car magazine.

She's gorgeous.

It's not a car.

It's a masterpiece.

Trumps them all, right?

All right, enough.

Get out of here.

Here, keep this safe.

He's a liability.

What did you say?

I said you're a goddamn liability, and the

last thing I need is an amateur in my crew.

Amateur?

You wouldn't even have looked in

the garage if it weren't for me.

I clocked that garage in

the first five seconds.

What I didn't do is

draw attention to it.

I found out what

needed finding out.

You got the code, didn't you?

No, you overplayed your hand.

Having you around was a mistake.

You think my cousin is going

to let you go on without me?

I wouldn't bet on it.

You know, what you said earlier

about throwing morier off a cliff,

was that true?

I love my cousin.

All right.

Really? What now?

They forced their way in and

said they would wait for you.

Officer depaul with interpol,

and this is officer closson.

You are Garrett and

Andrew foster?

Yeah, that's right.

And who's this?

Simon dardin. Sorry. What?

Simon dardin.

What is this about?

Well, you tell me.

Why would we be here

standing in your apartment?

Well, I don't know.

Seems illegal, though.

Do you have to have a

warrant in France?

I think you have

to have a warrant.

Funny guy.

We are investigating a stolen

car ring all over Europe,

and the names that we

hear again and again

are two brothers named foster.

Yeah. Are you sure that it's "foster"

coming up and not "fosterre"?

I see. You are smart guys.

I love smart guys.

I love to watch them crack.

I love that moment in their eyes

when they realize

they're not so smart.

You must see that every morning

when you're brushing your teeth.

See you soon, foster brothers.

We'll be there when

you're not so smart.

Seems like I need to be more worried about the

two of you than you need to worry about me.

We need to get the

hell out of here.

Yeah, good luck with that.

Listen, you say one word

of this to your cousin,

and I'll be the person

throwing somebody off a cliff.

Yeah?

Tell me your "drop this"

radar isn't going off.

I'm ignoring it.

You shouldn't.

Well, that's why i have you.

We're just relying on way too

many people we don't know

for this not to go sideways.

We're a team. Remember?

The sooner you start to realize that,

the sooner we can just get on with it.

You really think i wanna steal

cars for the rest of my life?

There are other ways

to make dad proud.

Stubborn old dog, wasn't he?

Never thought I'd forgive

him when he left.
