Mineurs 27 (2011)
Directed by Tristan Aurouet

Crime / Thriller
aka: Blind Valley

Film Synopsis

Vincent Descharnes is a provincial cop who looks ordinary enough.  There is certainly nothing to reveal the nasty business he was once drawn into to save his own skin.  Wilson and Stan have a shared passion for Déborah, but also a dark secret.  Ten years ago, they were subjected to a traumatic experience, of the kind that no child should have to endure.  Wilson wants to forget.  Stan wants to talk, not knowing that if he does so he will set in motion a terrible chain of events...

The best of American cinema
sb-img-26
