Former Special Forces officer Frank Martin will deliver anything to anyone for the right price, and his no-questions-asked policy puts him in high demand. But when he realizes his latest cargo is alive, it sets in motion a dangerous chain of events. The bound and gagged Lai is being smuggled to France by a shady American businessman, and Frank works to save her as his own illegal activities are uncovered by a French detective.

Der für die kriminelle Klientel arbeitende Kurierfahrer Frank Martin plant alle Einsätze bis ins kleinste Detail und vergisst nie seine beiden ehernen Regeln: Stelle keine Fragen und mache niemals ein Paket auf. Bis zu jenem Tag, als der ultralässige Kerl mit seinen Prinzipien bricht und das zappelnde Frachtstück in seinem Kofferraum öffnet. Plötzlich hat er die schöne Lai am Hals, die gegen einen Menschenhändlerring kämpft. Und als wäre das nicht genug, ist plötzlich auch noch eine schießfreudige Mafiosi-Bande hinter dem gut gebauten Stoiker her.

Le Transporteur

Pour les livraisons à haut risque, Franck est toujours là. Comme les autres, il obéit aux trois règles d'or : ne poser aucune question, ne pas ouvrir les colis et ne pas enfreindre les deux premières au risque d'y trouver la mort. Mais cette fois-ci, Franck a ouvert le sac posé dans son coffre et a découvert une jeune femme se nommant Lai. Face à ce cas de conscience et à une sombre affaire de trafic humain, il ne va plus pouvoir fermer les yeux et décide d'aider ce "colis" un peu spécial.
