October 2006. A mysterious bank suddenly appears on the Belgian market. The bank is proud to invest in the arms industry, oil- and gas, nuclear power, agrochemicals and companies violating their workers' rights. ACE bank immediately provokes reactions.

After weeks of outrage, enthousiasm and speculations, the belgian ngo Netwerk Vlaanderen reveals to be the mastermind behind this fake bank. The action turns out to be part of the campaign My Money. Clear Conscience?, which protests against controversial investments by commercial banks.
