- Synopsis
- «Night is life upside down» says Simon Weiss, head of the Paris Vice Squad, about his rounds through the city. From trendy Champs Elysées discos, to Les Halles swingers clubs and seedy Paris underground bars, Simon Weiss drives the streets after dark. Dominated by greed, the night brings out the criminals and the deviants, and Weiss has to do certain things off the record, because a man in his position must bend the law, if he is to do his job... and stay alive. Tonight, Weiss is accompanied on his rounds by Laurence Deray, an attractive young cop. And tonight, as he starts to suspect he is under investigation by Internal Affairs, he realizes a group of powerful gangsters are trying to set him up, possibly helped by one of his closest friends… A tense, dangerous night and no guarantee that he will make it through. From dusk until dawn on this one night, Simon Weiss and Laurence Deray navigate through a corrupt, secret and brutal Paris, one that only comes out after dark.
