Crime

Synopsis
Criminal genius Grimm devises a seemingly foolproof plan to rob the Montreal Central Bank. By disguising himself as a clown and passing off his accomplices Georges and Lise as two of the hostages, he manages to smuggle two million dollars out of the bank without anyone noticing. The get-away proves to be somewhat more difficult though…

Déguisé en clown, Grimm dévalise la banque de Montréal. Il prend 32 otages, dont parmi eux 2 sont des complices. Le casse réussit, mais intervient Larsky, un rival, ainsi que la police, qui vont nuire au braquage parfait effectué par Grimm…Read More »

Synopsis:
Claude Lelouch’s Bandits combines a murder story with a skewered view of “family values.” Jewel thief Jean Yanne ships his daughter Marie-Sophie Lelouch off to a Swiss boarding school. His motives are not altogether paternal: Yanne intends to avenge the murder of his wife, and doesn’t want his daughter around to complicate his plans. In Switzerland, Lelouch falls in love with a young criminal, and the cycle that has entrapped her father starts all over again. Nothing is what it seems and nothing that happens is what we expect in Bandits.

Director Daoud Abdul-Sayed builds his drama on the human being, as he introduces to us Ahmed Zaky in different human faces: He is Yehia, the police officer who is in a secret mission in the underworld of drug dealers and he is also Yehia Abu Daboura, the drug dealer who is living his daily life as an outlaw. These different and contradicting roles of one man helped in enriching the drama in this movie.In between, you will meet another major role: Adam, the mail man who used to get the messages or secret reports from Yehia, assuming that he is reporting to his higher officers. Adam is like the person in the middle between Yehia the police officer and Yehia the drug dealer. Yehia tells us during the movie that he/ or the drug dealer became a wealthy man. Read More »
