A Paris police chief discovers that his nightclub owner friend also leads a group of bank robbers. When he’s tipped off that the same robbers are planning a drug heist, the police chief races to defeat his two-faced friend. Meanwhile, the police chief has engaged in some double-crossing himself - by sharing the same woman with the man he calls his friend. (StudioCanal UK)
