Plot
[edit]A drug deal is witnessed in a parking lot. One of the drug criminals is killed by a masked person. Someone takes a video of the murder and leaves the crime scene immediately.
Conny works as a sales clerk at an Electronics Store, and likes to play simulated aircraft games in his spare time. He helps a woman (Diana) buying headphones at his store, who unbeknownst to him, happens to be a cop. His ex-wife is dating a pilot called Tomas.
Conny visits a residence to fix a TV. While listening on his headphones, he doesn't hear a murderer kill the husband (Luka) who arrives home. Luka's dying words are about a phone. His wife comes home and sees Conny with a screwdriver, and assumes he killed her husband.
Conny is convicted of murder and sent to prison for 18 years. Wife and daughter visit him in prison, but he insists he is innocent as his lawyer works on an appeal.
While working in the laundry room, Conny overhears fellow prisoners Musse and Norinder talking about a tunnel and a plane out of jail. He discovers and escapes from the tunnel for a brief few minutes when he returns to the murder scene, where he speaks to the Luka's wife that something was on a phone for which he was killed, and the wife believes him.
Lawyer informs Conny that the appeal didn't go through. Diana investigates and finds that Luka worked at "Bamboo Bamboo" - a location very close to a cocaine bust police operation.
Prisoners Musse and Norinder see a headless photo of Conny's ex-wife's husband, and mistakenly assume Conny is the pilot to fly them out of prison!
Luka's wife Mirjam finds the phone in a ceiling lamp, but it has zero charge. As she charges the phone and displays its contents on her TV, a woman cop Helena Malm visits her. Mirjam sees Helena's unmasked face on the drug bust video and realizes that she is a corrupt cop, probably Luka's murderer!
Mirjam calls Conny and asks to meet at Gallerian. Meanwhile, Conny escapes with Musse and Norinder to the airport, but instead takes a short break to meet Mirjam at the Gallerian. He gets the murder phone from Mirjam.
Finally, Conny arrives at the airport with Musse and Norinder. They get on the plane with $100 million in cash, but Helena also comes to airport with other cops. Helena shoots Conny on the shoulder, gets the phone with the incriminating video, and destroys the evidence.
Conny is arrested, and placed in a hospital. Diana asks her police superiors if she can visit him, but is denied. She does so anyway, but when she arrives at the hospital, she sees Helena in Conny's room, and a fight ensues. Helena shoots herself on the shoulder and also kills a guard, and blames Diana for everything. Since it is Helena's word against a lower ranked cop, Diana and Conny escape and go into hiding.
They break into Luka's home and view the video stored in a TV, and take it to the lawyer. But the lawyer is seen with Helena at the Rux hotel. They go to the hotel, and call the cops themselves. Helena tries to misguide other cops, but they see Conny and pursue him. Meanwhile, Musse also arrives at the same hotel and shoots the TV, asking for his cut of $50 million.
Police hold Diana for questioning, and Conny interrupts his Lawyer's escape, while the police arrest the lawyer as well. Conny locates a bag containing the $50 million and throws it towards Musse, who is now content.
Conny gets some help from a hotel staff and transmits the drug bust video from TV into the hotel's closed circuit monitors. Seeing the video, police officer Josef arrests Helena and others.
In the end scene, Conny arrives at his daughter's school in a police horse provided by Diana.
