Pete´s (Rhys Ifans) business is going bust, his sperm count is dodgy, and his relationship with Sarah (Sadie Frost) is on the rocks. He has a fling with his secretary, despite her being married to the company bike-messenger Trevor, and he´s spending too much time at Harry´s drug den. In short, Pete´s in trouble, but his problems are only just the beginning.

His buddy and accountant, Denny (Joseph Fiennes) informs him that unless they get their hands on some money quick, the company is bust, and it seems that only the Russian Mafia can save the day!
