Plot

A would-be artist is working in a dead-end job as a bank teller. At the urging of his movie-obsessed slacker roommate, he agrees to be the inside man for a bank heist. While the heist plans are coordinated, the artist's girlfriend arranges for him to have his first gallery exhibition. But when he tries to stop the heist, the plan is too far into motion to be halted.
