Synopsis:
This compelling and stylish noir thriller is based on one of the most notorious French political scandals of the 60s - the disappearance of the prominent Moroccan dissident Mehdi Ben Barka. In a Paris apartment in 1965, police discover the body of ex-con George Figon. A year earlier, tired of dodgy deals and petty scams, Figon had gone in search of something big. Through his underworld connections he had got himself hired as a producer for a documentary on decolonisation written by Marguerite Duras and directed by George Franju, with Ben Barka as 'historical advisor'. But when Figon set up a meeting with Barka in Paris, the whole film project was revealed to be an elaborate trap...
