A pensioner with many phobias realises one day that four million francs have been mistakenly deposited into his account. Instead of notifying the bank, he makes an unexpected decision: he withdraws the money and flees on his moped. On his trail, in addition to two Swiss-German gangsters, is Livio Bronner: an unlikely detective hired by the bank to recover the money. In the course of a daring journey punctuated by encounters and bizarre events, the essence of the two characters, both marked, in different ways, by a mocking destiny, will come to light.
Un pensionato prigioniero di molte fobie, un giorno si accorge che sul suo conto sono stati versati per errore 4 milioni di franchi. Anziché avvisare la banca, prende una decisione inaspettata: preleva i soldi e fugge in sella al suo motorino. Sulle sue tracce, oltre a due malavitosi svizzero-tedeschi, c'è Livio Bronner: un improbabile detective ingaggiato dalla banca per recuperare i soldi. Nel corso di un viaggio rocambolesco punteggiato di incontri e di eventi bizzarri, verrà alla luce l’essenza dei due personaggi, entrambi segnati, in modi diversi, da un destino beffardo.
