The Squirrel (1979)

A priceless jeweled necklace, crafted by Sultan Suleiman the Magnificent for Hürrem Sultan, goes up for auction and is won by an Englishman named Morgan. Lloyds Insurance has covered the piece, which will stay in Istanbul briefly before being shipped to London. Aboard that same vessel travels the Squirrel Gang, a thieving crew listed by Interpol. Yet they aren't alone in coveting the necklace—rival gangs are also scheming to seize it, setting the stage for a fierce battle among thieves.
