A taut 1970s crime thriller about an ex-con's heist plan undone by invisible surveillance, balancing procedural tension with wry commentary on the inescapability of modern monitoring.

Thief Duke Anderson—just released from ten years in jail—takes up with his old girlfriend in her posh apartment block, and makes plans to rob the entire building. What he doesn't know is that his every move is being recorded on audio and video, although he is not the subject of any surveillance.
