Synopsis
Thirty years ago, Ancelin was
a famous doctor, but now he is an alcoholic who tries to forget his
wasted life. One night, as usual, his mistress Madeleine finds
him totally drunk in a cheap cafe. Despite his condition, Ancelin
decides to drive home in his car, but at a crossroads he has a terrible
accident and kills a motorcyclist. When he comes to his senses,
Ancelin manages to make the killing look like an accident. The
police and a journalist are convinced that the man killed himself by
accident because the motorcycle was stolen and he was driving without
lights. This outcome is a revelation for Ancelin, who sees how he
might get away with a deadly revenge...
