The thrilling trailer plunges us back into the attacks of November 13, 2015. Unveiled on Wednesday, it reveals the atmosphere of the film which promises to be as violent as it is dark.
Directed by Cédric Jimenez, to whom we owe the thriller Bac Nord,
Novembre

Jean Dujardin and Sandrine Kiberlain at the head of the anti-terrorist brigade of the judicial police plunge us into this relentless hunt for jihadists, which kept France in suspense.
