action
Fascinated by the night universe, a boy climbs out of the window and witnesses a crime. As a child, Émile watched a man strangle a woman with a white scarf. Since then he has been obsessed with this precious moment and repeats it for himself. As a thirty-year-old he roams the nocturnal streets and has a shadow: the "jackal" robbed dead women. When the feminicides became rampant, investigating magistrate Simon posed as a television journalist. When Emile feels harassed by the “jackal”, he tries to get close to the wrong journalist. And the young teacher Anna resolves to help the hunted.
Reviews
"Atmospherically dense thriller with psychoanalytic ambitions, not clumsily staged, but not entirely convincing from an acting perspective."
