Tom and Linda are thirtysomethings living in Belgium, along the French border. He is a policeman, she is a beautician, and they are on the verge of bankruptcy. Caught between a rock and a hard place, they embark on a get-rich-quick life insurance scam in an attempt to give themselves a fresh start someplace sunny. Their plan is going pretty well … until everything goes wrong, when Philippe, a French gendarme with whom Linda has an affair starts to investigate…
Good People also tells the story of a small border town between France and Belgium and its people who can’t seem to face the evil eating away at their community.
A husband, wife and two children (a boy and a girl) arrive from an industrial town to the countryside, to the husband's birthplace, to stay in his father's old house "Just like any other film, in one way or another, this film is about all of us - kind, beautiful people in the tragic circumstances of hopelessness".
