On the other side of the tracks De l’autre côté du périph
Plot
At dawn one morning in the city of Bobigny, near an old illegal gambling site, the body is found of the wife of Jean-Eric Chaligny, the most influential leader of a French union embroiled in social tensions. Investigating the site are two detectives from two very different and opposite worlds: Ousmane Diakathé, officer in the city’s financial department, and François Monge, captain of the criminal department of the Paris Police. The investigation will lead them to follow two different paths, focusing on not only the world of Paris trade unions and employer associations, but also the clandestine illicit side of Bobigny business.
Review
‘On the Other Side of the Tracks’ mixes humor, action, social commentary and politics, and a little bit of sex. A great moment in cinema.
