The Con Artists

In the sun‑drenched Riviera of the Roaring Twenties, a world of glittering yachts, smoky cafés and whispered bets frames a tale of elegant deception. The age is one of excess and opportunity, where fortunes change hands as quickly as the tide, and the line between gentleman and cheat blurs beneath the din of accordions and clinking glasses. The film moves with a breezy, almost cinematic confidence, its tone a mix of sly humor and high‑stakes tension, inviting the audience to feel the thrill of a perfect con just before the curtain lifts.

Belle Duke commands a sleek casino yacht and a reputation for turning every gamble into a personal vendetta. Still smarting from a bitter split with her former lover, she plots a daring scheme to exact revenge, setting in motion a plan that could free the man who once out‑witted her. Across the glittering decks, Philip Bang lives as a legend of the con‑artist world, his charm matched only by his reputation for pulling the wool over anyone’s eyes. Their tangled history fuels a fragile truce that threatens to collapse under the weight of old grievances and new ambitions.

Enter Felix, an audacious Italian crook whose own appetite for risk lands him squarely in the middle of Belle’s revenge. Compelled to join forces with Philip, he discovers that the stakes are far more personal than he expected when he meets Charlotte, Philip’s determined daughter. Their connection adds a delicate thread of affection to an already precarious partnership, hinting at loyalties that might shift as quickly as the con they are about to pull. As the trio navigates a world where trust is a currency and every glance could conceal a hidden agenda, the film teases a game of wits that promises both danger and delight, leaving the audience eager to see how far each player will go to outsmart the others.
