Georges Deblache (Claude Brasseur) is a police inspector who is past middle age and who is so despondent about his life that he refuses to have a medical check-up, even though he suspects he has cancer. His partner is Didier Theron (Nils Tavernier), who has recently married a woman whom he has worshipful feelings for -- feelings which don't stop him from routinely bedding the many women of color he encounters while doing his job. Georges takes a keen interest in his partner's unrealistically appreciated wife and pushes his way into her not entirely unwilling arms. ~ Clarke Fountain, Rovi

Political filmmaker Stanislav Stanojevic takes the helm for this allegory about the nature of political oppression set in a fictitious country. Despite being blind and paralyzed, the power mad president of a small country maintains his position of authority though his keen sense of hearing and his corrupt daughter. Relentless towards his adversaries, the president takes great pleasure in picking them apart while relishing the sound of their racing heartbeats. Meanwhile, his ravishing daughter becomes obsessed with the idea of living equal to men, and appoints herself Chief of Firefighters in order to prove that she's no fragile flower. In a dubious bid for job security, she soon begins committing arson. ~ Jason Buchanan, Rovi

A completely routine drama involving sexual situations and rough characters, this story directed and written by Catherine Breillat looks at the liaison between Solange (Dominique Laffin) and Bruno (Bertrand Bonvoisin). Solange is the female version of a womanizing film director who is confident about her conquests and her ability to figure out men. Along comes Bruno, and Solange's faith in her knowledge of men is put to a test and found wanting. In spite of her better judgment, she is undeniably attracted to Bruno though the man is going to be trouble in a big way. ~ Eleanor Mannikka, Rovi
