The wrong path is often the best.
Directed by Cédric Klapisch
Produced by Vertigo Productions, M6 Films
A neo-noir descent into criminality and moral corruption, following a woman's entanglement with a charismatic criminal and the violent consequences of choosing the wrong path.
"Ni Pour, Ni Contre" tracks the fall of a young TV camerawoman, Caty, after she becomes involved with a group of petty criminals and their enigmatic leader, Jean. The gang lives hand-to-mouth until the day Jean plans a daring bank robbery. Although other gang members feel out of their league, Jean persuades them to take part and Caty finds herself in a hellish world of betrayal, violence and murder.
