Thierry more than a year without work. When he was released from the factory, he decided to look for it elsewhere. For days participating in workshops in skills centers, where instructors will teach you how to make the right impression on employers. In the evenings trying to be a good husband and father. His life becomes a band of endless negotiations: the bank on the loan, the agencies recruited employees or the sale of a caravan. Everything changes when Thierry gets a job as a security guard at the supermarket. Social realism is replaced by a modern morality play. Since then, man must take care of the security interests of the heads similar to those previously fired from his job. It is designed to catch the perpetrators of fraud and theft, both among customers and employees. Participates in the interrogation of persons who himself caught in the act. One of them is an elderly man who stole a piece of meat. It turns out that there is no money - either at himself or at home, there is also no friend to whom he could call. Subsequent events with other employees of the store induce him to revolt.
