Plot

A criminologist seeking tranquility for his thesis relocates to the serene Côte d’Azur. His peaceful life is shattered when a karate enthusiast assaults him. Rather than involving the authorities or filing a report, he chooses to handle the situation on his own terms. As he grapples with the implications of violence and personal responsibility, the sociologist navigates the fine line between self-defense and the law, ultimately confronting his own beliefs about justice and retribution in a world that is anything but peaceful.
