Londone gyvenantis amerikietis Mikis Pirsonas (aktorius Matthew McConaughey‘is) Britanijos sostinėje sukūręs tikrą marihuanos imperiją. Natūralu, kad jo verslas gundo daugybę tiek menkesnių, tiek stambesnių kriminalinio pasaulio veikėjų. Tačiau nuovokus, atsargus ir ryžtingas Mikis žino, kaip išvengti problemų. Tiksliau, žinojo iki šiol. Marihuanos verslą užsimoja nupirkti paslaptingi Oklahomos nusikaltėliai, vadovaujami žiauriojo „Sausaakio“ (aktorius Henry‘is Golding‘as). Apdairusis Mikis verslą parduoti atsisako. Sausaakis jam pasiunčia žinutę, užpuldamas vieną itin slaptą marihuanos auginimo tašką. Apstulbęs dėl tokio priešininkų informuotumo, Mikis paveda situaciją išsiaiškinti geriausiam savo parankiniui Reimondui (akt. Charlie‘is Hunnam‘as).
