Milan and Victor have known each other since before they can
remember. Owners of nightclubs in Paris, they have lost contact
for several years, but that is about to change when Serki, a dangerous
psychopath, returns, with a barrel-load of bad memories. Some
time ago, Milan and Victor were forced into a dodgy business deal which
resulted in Serki ending up in a Mexican jail. But now Serki has
returned to settle a few old scores and the two old friends have no
choice but to work together if they are to escape the wrath of their
dangerous enemy...

The history of French cinema
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.
A wave of fresh talent in the late 1950s, early 1960s brought about a dramatic renaissance in French cinema, placing the auteur at the core of France's 7th art.
It was American film noir and pulp fiction that kick-started the craze for thrillers in 1950s France and made it one of the most popular and enduring genres.
In the 1920s French cinema was at its most varied and stylish - witness the achievements of Abel Gance, Marcel L'Herbier, Jean Epstein and Jacques Feyder.
