Antoine (Jalil Lespert) is a young rookie lieutenant (French for detective :) ) who chooses a homicide division in Paris as his first posting. His boss is super cop Caroline (Nathalie Baye) who is recovering from alcohol addiction. It does not take long for things to heat up as Antoine is welcomed to his job with a couple of canal drownings. You soon find yourself engrossed in a very involving crime drama that sheds equal light on both the investigation and the investigators. The acting is very subdued but yet powerful and the coupled with a very realistic unhurried pace, the film casually plops itself on the top shelf of crime thrillers.Rating: * * *
