Alain Pigeaux

Philippe Jordan is a policeman prone to advancing the cause of justice by any means necessary. On his agenda is a powerful drug cartel working out of Paris and Marseilles, with a drug lord who is essentially inaccessible -- but not immortal.

Émilie leaves Paris behind the wheel of a car she can't drive. She hitchhikes the wrong way round and tries to find drivers who will take her to see the sea from the top of the cliffs. A father, a brother, a lover, and a mother, so many characters encountered on the way who remind her of her past and teach her how to sleep, laugh, sing, and make love again.

Francois Marboni is a butcher who is being blackmailed for having an affair with the prostitute Rachel in this black comedy. He decides to hire a hit man when the blackmailer demands that he start cutting his profit margin to the bone. Francois soon becomes a target of the hitman he hired.
