Harry Fabian likes to pretend to be a gangster, but in reality he is a petty swindler who dreams of opening a fight club in London and getting rich from ultimate fights. The pitiful earnings of his prostitute girlfriend are clearly not enough to start a business. Fabian has a week to collect the necessary amount, and for this he is ready to do anything, using cunning and blackmail to draw many people into the orbit of deception. But Fabian does not suspect that fate, in the guise of police officers clearing the streets of criminal elements on the eve of the coronation of George VI, has already drawn him into its whirlpool.
