Synopsis

Spoiler shield

Elvire, Nathalie and Christine, three young ladies with a proven track record, are called in by the Secret Service to retrieve coveted papers concerning a new explosive. Introduced to a fearsome environment thanks to a female helper, they face kidnappings, play a double game, toil endlessly, lend helicopters and finally triumph, smiling, after a breathtaking fight.

“Some stories are better left unspoiled.”
