Comrades in crime, best friends to the end, aging robbers Max and Riton pull off a large-scale job together: a burglary of fifty million gold bars at Orly. When the milieu finally discovers the criminals' identities from Riton's mistress, they kidnap him and blackmail Max to get at the stash.

"It's Gabin's show all the way, anticipating the melancholy, atmospheric gangster pictures of Jean-Pierre Melville that started to appear a couple years later." - Jonathan Rosenbaum, Chicago Reader
