Film Synopsis
Alain Leroy-Gomez is the spoiled son of a rich bourgeois couple. At one of his music lessons, he meets an adolescent girl named Fleur. The latter brings both material and moral support to her sick mother. She has also a brother named Julien, who is a thief, along with some friends from the neighbourhood. They sell stolen goods to Bourdieux, a receiver and owner of a garage. One day, Julien is arrested by the police for robbery. When Fleur tries to help her brother out, she realises that she needs money to hire a lawyer. To obtain this money, Fleur and the gang kidnap Alain and demand a ransom payment from his parents. Instead of giving into the kidnappers, Alain's father enlists the help of Fournier, a detective...© James Travers
