L'Imprécateur (1977)
Directed by Jean-Louis Bertuccelli

Comedy / Drama
aka: The Accuser

Film Synopsis

No one could have foreseen the sudden collapse of the multinational company Rosserys and Mitchell - or could they?  Perhaps the writing was on the wall the day that Arangrude was killed in a supposed car accident.  On that day, the director of human relations found a piece of paper signed The Imprecator on her desk, along with every other employee in the company.  The notes seemed pretty innocuous at the time, just a caustic commentary on the firm's business methods.  But this is how foundations begin to fracture and edifices tumble.  Just who is The Imprecator and what is his motive...?
