What Is 12 12 12 About?
The series is built around a raid on a bank vault beneath the streets of Zurich. Every episode moves between three timelines: the 12 months of planning, the 12 hours of the heist itself and the 12 days that follow. Mackie plays a disgraced FBI agent and Dornan plays an American career criminal, and Apple describes their pursuit across Europe as a zero-sum game of cat and mouse.
