There is something thrillingly old-fashioned about genre expert Frédéric (Secret Agents) Schoendoerffer's Le Convoi which follows a bunch of drug runners - the story is never seen from the perspective of the law. Their high speed run from the south of Spain to Paris is interrupted by a shoot-out with police near the border, leaving their uber-cool leader (played by Benoit Magimel, The Piano Teacher) trying to keep his increasingly tense team together.
