Film Synopsis
François Toledo is being pursued relentlessly by the
police. Only a few days ago he was just an ordinary French man -
a worker at a car factory, happily in love with a colleague,
Janine. Yet there is more to François than is first
apparent. He is married and has a little daughter. He is
also traumatised by his sexual inadequacy, a failing that has driven
him to strangle three prostitutes...
