Nicky (Will Smith) is a seasoned master of misdirection, who can talk the talk and charm even the most cynical targets into falling for his money-making schemes.

He becomes romantically entangled with novice con artist Jess (Margot Robbie) and she, in turn, becomes his willing protegee. In the process of teaching Jess the tricks of his illicit trade, Nicky realises that his feelings are clouding his judgement and he promptly ends the relationship.

Three years later, Nicky is in Buenos Aires at a race car circuit for his latest and incredibly lucrative ruse.
