In a small town in the 1910s, a group of criminals comes together to execute the most ingenious heist ever seen: stealing a series of valuable high-end vacuum cleaners from a big department store. The plot begins when one of the group members, a charismatic but clumsy thief, learns that the store is launching a new vacuum model, praised for its powerful suction and innovative design. He tries to convince his friends, an eccentric inventor and a cunning thief, that this is the perfect target.
The gang devises a ridiculous and convoluted plan that involves disguises, chaos that could rival a comedy of errors, and a dog that becomes the unwitting star of the heist. As the group prepares for their elusive assault, a series of misunderstandings, blunders, and comedic situations lead the thieves into increasingly absurd predicaments. Each attempt to steal the vacuum cleaners ends in disaster, generating laughter and entanglement.
Over time, the clumsiest thief realizes that, despite all their failures, true friendship and the joy of being together outweigh any material treasure. In the end, the gang decides that life is too short to complicate things, and in an unexpected twist, they choose to use their ingenuity to help the store promote its product, becoming the local heroes in an unforeseen way.
