Synopsis

Benoit (32) and Jimi (14), a big guy and a small man, are two hypersensitive people looking to be loved. Except that these two steal Jeeps for a gang. A veteran car thief and compulsive womanizer, Benoit moves from one conquest to another under the jealous watch of Jimi, who would do anything for his older friend. Jimi wants to help his depressive mother make ends meet. He is also looking for the love of a father, and has decided he has found it in his older companion. Benoit, however, is looking for a different kind of love. But one stolen Jeep after another, the friendship of the duo grows. Through a process of brawling and reconciliation, they both are able to find the unconditional love in each other that they had been searching for.
