Film Synopsis
Twenty-three year-old Ilan Halimi could have had no idea that he was
being lured into a trap when a pretty young woman entered his telephone
shop on the Boulevard Voltaire and called him the following day to
arrange a meeting. But on Friday, 20th January 2006 Ilan was
singled out by a gang of barbarians for a cruel and tragic fate, simply
because he was a Jew. After his abduction, he was imprisoned and
tortured for three weeks before being left for dead in a wood by his
tormentors. For 24 hours before Ilan's death his parents were
subjected to a barrage of threats and ransom demands from his abductors
- 24 hours of unmitigated Hell, with the police powerless to lend any
support to the victims...
