Paris. For some months now, a violent gang has been operating with complete disregard for the law.
Head of the Judicial Police, Robert MANCINI lays down a challenge to the two men who work directly beneath him, - the head of the Search and Action Squad, Leo VRINKS (Daniel AUTEUIL) and the head of the Anti-Crime Unit, Denis KLEIN (Gerard DEPARDIEU): Whichever man captures the gang will replace him as the head of the Criminal Investigations Department.
The race begins for the two men - once friends who now don't speak to one another. They have different methods, different teams, and different relationships with one woman, Camille VRINKS (Valeria GOLINO).
