Michael, a Vietnam vet, pulls off a bank heist with his gang, which includes the bank's manager. To ensure the loyalty of everyone involved, a set of keys is made to the hiding place for the loot so it can only be opened if all the members are present. The bank manager gets cold feet and tries to back out, so Mike and his buddies kill him and his wife. His daughter gets hold of the key and runs for help to David, one of her father's old friends and also a Vietnam vet as well as a former comrade of Michael's. Among other things, 'Breathing Fire' is known for the scene in which the two adolescents battle kung fu midgets in a bar.
