At the request of his niece, a private detective specializing in extramarital affairs finds himself investigating the suspicious death of his twin brother, with whom he had cut ties. He takes a trip to the lavish residence of his late sibling, near the French-Spanish border, where the dodgy and disreputable gather: a desillusioned American widow, a former marine helicopter pilot, middle-aged Hells Angels with with regional drawls, incompetent cops tracking a missing gitan. This deadpan detective story evokes another set of twins in its style, which mixes the American and European codes of film noir. (Cannes Film Festival)
