Assassin (s)

Unemployed and living with his mother, Max breaks into the apartment of a lone old Wagner. Suddenly he returns and shoots at the unlucky thief, but misses. Looking through the video surveillance tape stolen the day before, Max witnesses how Wagner kills a man and a woman. By a strange coincidence, the killer comes to their house and stays for dinner. Later, during a walk, Wagner breaks into the house of Vidal, Max's lonely neighbor, and invites the young man to become his student. Having completed his first murder, Max begins training.

After Wagner is in the hospital, Max meets up with his teenage friend Mehdi. He shows Vidal's corpse and tells that he works as a killer. Going to business instead of Wagner, Max takes Mehdi with him. Trying to shoot the client on the go, the killers have an accident, but the teenager manages to complete the order. An angry Wagner kills Max and starts teaching Mehdi. However, he soon realizes that a teenager is not suitable for working as a killer. Mehdi leaves with a pistol and kills the director of his lyceum and one of the teachers. From the news report, Wagner learns that his former student shot himself.
