La mort viendra
Synopsis
When one of his henchmen is shot dead, Brussels major but declining mafia figure Charles Mahr hires Tez, a ferocious contract killer, to avenge him. Upon her arrival in the Belgian capital city, the young woman finds herself caught up in a complex tangle of alliances and quicksand, with even her employers turning against her. Her choices have to be made with strategy.
Carried by Sophie Verbeeck’s subtle performance in a role on the edge, this thriller is a tribute to the codes of film noir, both in its polished photography and in the intricate weave of its plot.
