This is an absolutely brilliant film! if you want real action that's not too far fetched, a real story, and some culture thrown
in the mix, then this is definitely the film for you!
The captain of the Police, Paul Nerteaux, is enquiring into the deaths of three Turkish women who's bodies were found
in the streets of Paris and were badly mutilated, before they were murdered.
He engages the help of an old colleague Jean-Louis Schiffer, who's tenacity he knows well, he has to go and fetch him
out of a retired Policeman's home. Jean-Louis used to be a Policeman in Turkey, so he knows the Turkish people and their cutoms
well, but he was also feared because he was very thorough with investigations and didn't mind torturing the arrested criminals
to get the information that he wanted.
In the course of the investigation, the two men meet Anna Heymes, the wife of a top person who works for the ministry
of the interior. Anna Heymes suffers from hallucinations and amnesia to the point where she doean't even recognise her own
husband and doubts his honesty.
Things are not always as they seem to everyone involved.
