Dawn in a small Flemish town. Two robbers make their way to a bank branch, where they take staff members, one customer and two children hostage. The perpetrators then wait for the police to arrive at the bank to make clear their demands.

A shooting incident threatens to escalate the situation. Ivo wants to know what exactly is going on inside the bank. Ibrahim has a hard time negotiating and Vos cannot stop thinking about her sick father.

The robbers press the hostages to get as much money as possible to a safe place, but not every hostage is willing to help. When the police take drastic action, it looks like things might get out of hand.
