Strong-armed into transporting the kidnapped daughter of the head of the Environmental Agency for the Ukraine from Marseilles to Odessa, skilled wheelman
Frank Martin (
Jason Statham) enlists the aid of
Inspector Tarconi (
François Berléand) in accomplishing the treacherous assignment in this action-packed installment of the popular
action series produced by
Luc Besson (who also co-scripts).
Frank isn't exactly thrilled with his latest assignment, but when his employer turns up the pressure, he has little choice but to deliver. His cargo is a feisty young girl named
Valentina (
Natalya Rudakova) -- who just happens to be the daughter of
Leonid Vasilev (
Jeroen Krabbé), the powerful top dog of the Ukraine EPA. Now, as
Frank makes his way through Stuttgart and Budapest on the road to the Black Sea,
Vasilev's men besiege his car from all sides, and his cynical young passenger gets a bad case of Stockholm Syndrome. As the driver and his cargo grow increasingly close, they both realize that making even a single mistake could cost them dearly.
