Description:

In this gripping crime thriller, the once-feared criminal mastermind Émile Morland finds himself grappling with age and irrelevance in a world that has long moved on from his notorious acts. Desperate for one last taste of power and glory, he enlists the help of his loyal friend Aristide to orchestrate an audacious kidnapping scheme: the abduction of the son of a wealthy millionaire. As they plan the meticulous operation, tensions rise between the two old acquaintances as they are forced to confront their past deeds and rekindled rivalries, all while navigating the treacherous world of modern-day criminal networks. With twists at every turn and a palpable sense of unease running throughout, this tale of betrayal and redemption delves into themes of loyalty, power dynamics, and the human need for relevance in an ever-changing society.
