Film Synopsis
One day in July 1982, André Bamberski is informed of the death of
his daughter Kalinka. She was fourteen and was spending her holidays
in Germany in the company of her mother and her stepfather, Dr Krombach.
Straight away, André becomes suspicious about his daughter's death.
Dr Krombach's strange behaviour and a disturbing autopsy leave many unanswered
questions. Sure something is amiss, André embarks on a personal
quest to uncover the truth. His investigation will last 27 years and
become the sole obsession of his life...

The best of American film noir
In the 1940s, the shadowy, skewed visual style of 1920s German expressionism was taken up by directors of American thrillers and psychological dramas, creating that distinctive film noir look.
American film comedy had its heyday in the 1920s and '30s, but it remains an important genre and has given American cinema some of its enduring classics.
