The film centers on a group of bank robbers who lead a close-knit crew in Pittsburgh. They front their popular online videos while wearing furry lupine masks during the escapades. The YouTube program called HTRAB is well recognized and features the phrase Who is hungry. Across the nation, an increasing number of imitation thieves receive guidance from this video.
Characters face financial struggles
The lead character Ryan plays an underdog antihero who fronts the group while struggling with medical bills. His partner Emi and combat vet Vince also fight to provide for their families after running out of options. Tech wizard Hugo shapes the YouTube content while dealing with student debt and shrinking job opportunities.

The investigation gains a buddy-cop vibe as they banter about the meaning of justice and peacekeeping.
