While carrying out the bank's blueprints, Reese is inadvertently photographed by Stacey Bishop, who is taking pictures for the bank's advertising campaign. Reese and Stacey meet, and, complicating the burglary somewhat, fall in love.
The film premiered with a gala presentation at the Toronto International Film Festival on September 8, 1979.[2]
