Set against the backdrop of the 2007 financial crisis, this true story follows Stephen Jackley, a British college student who becomes a modern-day Robin Hood. Motivated by economic inequality, he embarks on a series of bank robberies, using disguises and fake weapons to steal thousands of pounds, which he distributes to the homeless. With insights from his diaries, the narrative explores Jackley's psychological struggles, including a later diagnosis of Asperger's syndrome, revealing the complexities behind his audacious actions and ultimate downfall.
