LEGAL AID

Hannelore Cayre

SYNOPSIS

At the age of 40, Antoine LAHOUD is an enthusiastic criminal lawyer but disappointed by his professional environment. It is during a pleading that he is “noticed” by a lawyer with a sulphurous reputation. The latter hires him to defend the big crooks and allows him to taste the fruits of his prosperity. Lahoud does not take long to understand that the sudden infatuation he arouses in his colleague is far from being disinterested and that it will lead him… behind bars.
