Film Synopsis
Once a policeman, 50-something Daniel now works as a debt recovery

conscience. One day, his path crosses that of Laura, an
18-year-old girl who asks him for a lift. Daniel agrees, but on
the way, Laura offers herself to him for money. Outraged, Daniel
forces the woman out of his car, but soon after has a fit of
remorse. When he returns to where he left Laura he finds she is
no longer there...

The greatest French Films of all time
With so many great films to choose from, it's nigh on impossible to compile a short-list of the best 15 French films of all time - but here's our feeble attempt to do just that.
Since the 1920s, Hollywood has dominated the film industry, but that doesn't mean American cinema is all bad - America has produced so many great films that you could never watch them all in one lifetime.
From its birth in 1895, cinema has been an essential part of French culture. Now it is one of the most dynamic, versatile and important of the arts in France.
