Mangin is a rough and nihilistic police detective in Paris investigating a Tunisian drug ring. After locking up one of the criminals, he falls in love with the man’s girlfriend. When she is suspected of stealing from the crime ring, things complicate very quickly. A violent world makes very little room for real human emotions.

Pialat uses the policier/crime genre to explore the lower depths of the Paris underworld, its a movie that somehow simultaneously has no action yet is all action
