What to do when the workers of a factory have been laid off overnight? Louise has an original idea: why not pool the compensation money to ... hire a hit man and to liquidate the boss?

Michel, who is busted, gladly accepts the deal but proves so inept that he sub-contracts the job to improbable novices.

But Louise will not give up so easily.
