A man takes hostages two women in a house near a village.Then the mayor, the police, the prefect and the gendarmerie are very preoccupied for their careers, their political future and the fame of the village.They offer to the kidnapper (a psychopath we don't know where he comes from, what his his history) a lot of money,but the man insists.So they will send a prostitute,but the woman is quite smart and refuses to do what they want.Moment of nervousness and there is a shooting and the prostitute receives a deadly shot.
Then another intend with an Italian immigrant,who also refuses to be sacrificed.The only person who tries to undertand the psychopath and to negotiate which will be the daughter of mayor.What will she manage ?
Of course very good actors such as Bernard Blier, Francis Blanche, Claude Piéplu and Mylène Demongeot participated in this film.The film is above all the description of the egoism,the political ambition and the cowardice of the authorities.
