Antonio, a succesful executive sentenced to prison for financial crimes, is unwilling to let anybody know.

His plan is thoroughly designed: he has applied for a leave and with the help of his lawyer, his grilfriend and a few well paid connections, makes everyone belive that he is taking a master degree in the USA. But to be able to be out in time to return to work, he needs to be granted a sentence reduction showing an exemplary behaviour.

But his purpose will get more and more complicated and will force Antonio to bring all his weapons into play to keep his lie alive.
