Industrialist Pierre Verdier kills his mistress Jeanne Ancelin by throwing her off a train. Her husband, Ancelin, decides to take revenge on his wife's murderer, who has been acquitted by justice.
A brooding, rain-slicked descent into the dark heart of post-war Paris. This film oozes cynical fatalism, where every shadow hides a threat and justice is a cold, personal pursuit. It's a masterclass in mounting dread.
