Film Synopsis
In February 2006, the police come across the naked, badly burned body of
a young man lying by the side of the road in Sainte-Geneviève-des-Bois,
just outside Paris. The dying man is identified as Ilan, a Jew who
has recently been abducted, imprisoned and tortured by a gang of rabid anti-Semites
led by Youssouf Fofana. Before he met his gruesome fate on a crime-ridden
Parisian housing state, Ilan worked in a shop in Paris selling mobile phones.
Once his torturers have been found and arrested, they are each forced to
give evidence, to account for the horrific brutality they meted out to an
innocent young man...
