'Sixteen years after returning home, three disillusioned Australian Vietnam conscripts use their army skills to successfully plan and execute the country's biggest bank robbery. Seven years pass, and a petty criminal convicted as the driver in the heist is released from gaol. When his body is fished out of the harbour, the grim murder reignites the case.'
