Starring: Gérard Depardieu, Clovis Cornillac, Jacques Gamblin, Marie Bunel, Vahina Giocante Synopsis
As has become his custom, police commissioner Paul Bellamy takes his
annual summer break in the south of France, staying with wife
Francoise’s family in Nimes. Bellamy, a workaholic, would rather
be back in Paris fighting crime and certainly has no enthusiasm for his
wife’s holiday plans. Fortunately, he is rescued by the
unexpected arrival of two men – his good-for-nothing brother Jacques
and a 40-something stranger, Noël Gentil, who is in desperate need
of his help. The former takes a perverse delight in raking over
old family grievances whilst the latter intrigues Paul with a bizarre
tale involving a murder and faked insurance claim. This is the
kind of holiday Paul Bellamy prefers...
