Storyline:
Not every heist goes as planned—especially when your getaway driver is a therapist.
Two desperate robbers pull off what should have been a clean and simple theft. But when things take an unexpected turn, their perfect escape plan crumbles—forcing them to go on the run.
With police closing in, they have no choice but to bring along an unlikely accomplice—one of their therapists, who suddenly finds themselves caught in a dangerous (and absurd) game of survival. As tensions rise and trust is tested, the trio must navigate betrayals, close calls, and the blurred line between morality and survival.
Blending high-energy action, sharp humor, and unexpected character dynamics, The Instigators is a fast-paced, thrill-packed ride where the best getaway plans are often improvised.
