The Hand That Feeds You

Beschreibung

The robbery of the armoured car in Montevideo fails miserably. A lucky break for the intrepid Ursula who manages to snatch all the loot. Only now, the wannabe robbers are hot on her heels. As is the police. And Ursula's sister. But Ursula is a criminal virtuoso, and given the hilarious ineptitude of those in pursuit, she might just pull it off.
