Steve Coogan
stars as Simon Garden, the non-too-successful Blackpool parole
officer who has only managed to rehabilitate three criminals in
his whole career. Dispatched to the Manchester office, he gets
framed for a murder he didn’t commit. The only way to prove his
innocence is to rob a bank to retrieve a crucial piece of evidence.
But he can’t do this alone, so turns to those who he believes
know best – his former clients – persuading them to return to
their lives of crime for one last job. This is Steve's first full
length feature film and also stars Om Puri (East is East) and
Steven Dillane (Welcome To Sarajevo). . SEE
