Synopsis
Solving a complicated case that involves homicide in self-defence, an abused hostage and a large sum of money lost without a trace would lead an average detective to draw amazing conclusions... A detective who was not born yesterday and who lights one cigarette after another, a femme fatale, murder, money, flashbacks and an unexpected turn at the end of the film are all favourite and omnipresent motives of every film noir, so this film uses all the elements of the genre and puts them together, building a funny puzzle.
