Romance/Drama movie with a series of ridiculous plot devices

This is probably a tough one cause I have only a brief recollection. But I remember this movie about a married woman who is a hostage during a bank robbery where the thieves also take hostages clothes for some reason. In her underwear, she accepts a ride from another hostage (a man) and once in his car they begin an affair.

The robbery was only secondary and a brief scene in the movie, and is honestly a dumb plot device to cause the married woman to end up in her underwear in a strangers car.

Any help is appreciated.

In the movie "Inside Man" (2006) there is a bank robbery where several women are held hostage and are stripped to their underwear, but there is no man who gives a lift in his car to a hostage woman in her undies. And in this movie the bank robbery is a major plot element: https://www.imdb.com/title/tt0454848/

When was the movie made? When did you see it? English speaking movie or foreign?

Yeah, "Inside Man" is probably not it, since the robbery was secondary (almost tertiary, a plot device) to the main story. I remember the car both characters ended up in was rather modern-looking, so it's likely the movie was made after the 2000s, if not later. I can't remember where I saw it cause it's one of those memories you just unlock randomly and go: "Man, when was that?".

I have not seen this, so this is really just a guess, maybe?:
“Esa ja Vesa - auringonlaskun ratsastajat” (1994), also known as “Sunset Riders”
There are bank robbery, hostage, woman in underwear, sex, marriage, husband-wife relationship, unfaithfulness, extramarital affair in the movie.

Interesting find! It was kinda hard to find a good summary online, but doesnt look like it, judging from what I read and the pictures I saw. Been trying to recall more these last few days, and I can confidently say that the movie I'm looking for was made after the 2000s. The car both characters end up in was rather modern-looking. Thank you for helping!
