Os Crimes dos Rios de Púrpura

Two criminal investigations. The same day, 300 km apart, two policemen are given two very particular cases. Pierre Niemans (Jean Reno) is a man of experience, who has an infallible instinct in criminal affairs but hides painful fears. He travels to Guernon, a university town in the Alps where a violent murder took place. Yougn, sharp, and loner Max Kerkerian (Vincent Cassel), a former car thief who entered the police force through a love of danger, is investigating a desecrated graveyard at Sarzac at night, and in particular the grave of a child who disappeared twenty years before. As clues bring them together, the two investigations crash head-on. And the murders grow in number. The truth will outdo all theories, taking the two policemen to high altitudes, caught between icy heights and death's door. (texto oficial do distribuidor)
