When a police informant is gunned down, a determined vice cop must recruit a new stool pigeon-one that can finally take down the unassailable mob boss. The line between the cops and gangsters becomes blurred as Dédé (Philippe Léotard), a charismatic pimp, is forced to 'rat out' his former boss and nemesis, the elusive Massina.
