As they try to evade the authorities hot on their trail, they seek refuge in a quaint candy store where the owners, a couple of novices in crime, offer them hospitality. However, what begins as a plan to lay low quickly turns into a series of misunderstandings.
As the pair of outlaws interact with the naïve store owners, they begin to develop a strange bond with them and question their criminal lifestyle. What seemed to be a simple scam for survival takes an unexpected turn, intertwining friendship, loyalty, and a touch of romance, creating a charming and hilarious atmosphere. The situation complicates when real criminals and law enforcement get involved, making every decision crucial.

Amidst thefts, misunderstandings, and a heart that beats strong, it becomes a fable about redemption and finding the path to justice from the least expected place.
