| Blu Ray

Mathieu Kassovitz (La Haine) makes a powerful comeback in front of and behind the camera with this impressive thriller based on true events. It's April 1988 on the Ouvéa Island in the French colony of New Caledonia. 30 police are kidnapped by Kanak separatists and in response 300 special-forces operatives are sent in to restore order. To avoid unnecessary conflict Philippe Legorjus (Kassovitz) the captain of an elite counter-terrorism police unit is sent in to the heart of the rebel base to negotiate a peaceful solution. But against the highly pressured... backdrop of presidential elections in France the stakes are high and all bets are off. [show more]
