In a desolate Paris suburb, no one dares challenge crime boss Hagen, who rules his turf with an iron fist. That includes his former friend Chet, who vows to keep to himself in order to protect his loved ones. But Hagen keeps pushing his buttons… and Chet can only stand for so much before he explodes.

This is a raw, tension-soaked descent into a bleak urban underworld. It feels like a slow-burn fuse, with a palpable sense of dread building towards an inevitable, explosive confrontation. The atmosphere is thick with moral compromise and a desperate fight for survival, wrapped in a gritty, unforgiving aesthetic.
