Synopsis

Spoiler shield

One morning, Laura Corre files a complaint against the former mayor of the southern town where she grew up, who had recently joined the government. She has to face the reluctance of the police officers taking her statement. After leaving Paris, Laura had returned to live with her father, Max, a former boxer who had become the mayor's chauffeur. Seeing an easy target in the shy young girl, the mayor agreed to pull some strings to get her a place to live.
