Year 1977. Vevey, a small town beside Lake Geneva. Fresh out of prison, Eddy is taken in by his friend Osman.

But money is very tight this Christmas Eve, and so, when a news flash announces the death of Charlie Chaplin, Eddy gets a bright idea. They will steal the famous and wealthy actor's coffin and demand a ransom from the family.
