Plot Summary

A group of best friends and amateur thieves steal a valuable statuette for a ruthless black market art dealer. After the thieves botch the delivery of the piece of art, the art dealer forces them to "find" one million dollars by the end of the week or face certain death. The desperate friends concoct a plan whereby each of them takes out a one million dollars life insurance policy on themselves. Consequently, if one of the friends die, the others will collect on the policy and pay off the dangerous art dealer. The thieves then enter into a lethal lottery to choose who will be the victim and who will be the killer.
