English Summary:

Nuns on the Run (or Nuns on the Run: The Story of an Immaculate Deception) is a 1990 British comedy film starring Eric Idle and Robbie Coltrane, also featuring Camille Coduri and Janet Suzman. The film was written and directed by Jonathan Lynn and produced by HandMade Films. Many of the outdoor scenes were shot in Chiswick, White City and Kings Cross. The soundtrack was composed and performed by Yello and also features George Harrison's song "Blow Away".

After their boss is killed during a bank heist, London gangsters Brian Hope (Idle) and Charlie McManus (Coltrane) desire to lead more peaceful lives in Brazil, disapproving of their new younger and more brash boss, Casey (Patterson). While planning to rob a local Triad gang of their ill-gotten drug money, Brian meets and falls in love with a waitress, Faith (Coduri). During the robbery, Brian and Charlie betray their fellow gangsters, Abbott and Morley, steal the money and flee, but are forced to abandon their car when it runs out of petrol and seek refuge in a nearby nunnery during the ensuing gunfight. Faith, who had tried to warn Brian beforehand, is shot in the wrist by Abbott, while one of the triads is shot and hospitalized. After this, Casey places a bounty on Brian and Charlie's heads.

Hungarian Summary:

Brian (Eric Idle) és Charlie (Robbie Coltrane) a két erőszaktól megcsömörlött bankrabló elhatározza, hogy otthagyja a bankszakmát és békésebb foglalkozást választ. Utolsó balhéjukként még megfújnak 1 millió fontot, melyre a maffiának, a kínai triádoknak és a rendőrségnek is fáj a foga. A zsákmánnyal a legközelebbi házba rohannak be, amely történetesen egy apácazárda. Brian és Charlie magára ölti a fityulát és beáll a rendbe, hiszen keresi őket a triád, a rendőrség és Brian barátnője, Camille is.
