Michel takes up pickpocketing on a lark and is arrested soon after. His mother dies shortly after his release, and despite the objections of his only friend, Jacques, and his mother's neighbor Jeanne, Michel teams up with a couple of petty thieves in order to improve his craft. With a police inspector keeping an eye on him, Michel also tries to get a straight job, but the temptation to steal is hard to resist.

All the stealing montages were incredible…they really know how to shoot hands in an interesting way. I don’t know if all of that seemed realistic (people not noticing they were being robbed) but it all looked really cool. Also, very compelling protagonist! It feels like he really can’t reconcile his view of the world (some people, like me, are above laws) with what he actually feels (guilt).
