Outside Paris, three people are pursuing their separate dreams. Roland is building his own racing car, but it blows up under test. His friend Manu is a stunt pilot, who loses his licence. They are befriended by Laetitia, an artist mounting her first exhibition, at which not a single work sells. Their dreams in ruins, and virtually broke, the three pool what's left of their resources and head for a place on the
African coast where an aircraft full of loot came down in the sea. As they are searching for the wreck, a man climbs aboard their boat and says he was the pilot. He helps them find the sunken plane, but after hauling up the treasure their boat is approached by men claiming to be police. In fact, they are mercenaries who plan to seize the treasure. A gun battle follows, in which the mercenaries are repelled but Laetitia is killed. Roland and Manu put Laetitia's body into a deep sea diving suit, and bury her at sea. Roland and Manu put the pilot ashore and head back to France with their booty. Finding Laetitia's young cousin, they give him her share of the proceeds. Roland then decides to fulfil her last dream of living on the sea by creating a hotel and restaurant out of an abandoned
sea fort. Manu decides to look up old friends in Paris and, spending lavishly, is spotted by the mercenaries who have been keeping watch on his former girlfriend's apartment. Evading them, he rushes to warn Roland in the fort. The mercenaries follow and, in a gun battle, Manu is killed after killing some opponents. Using a cache of guns and hand grenades left by the Germans in 1945, Roland kills the remaining mercenaries. ==Cast==
