A Parisian police chief has an affair, but unbeknownst to him, the boyfriend of the woman he’s having an affair with is a bank robber planning a heist.

VIBE

A smoky, existential dive into the French underworld. This film feels like a rain-slicked, neon-lit alleyway, where double-crosses and existential dread are around every corner. It’s a cool, detached, and fatalistic mood piece.
