暗流

《暗流》2000年9月27日在法国上映时好评如潮，首周观众人数就突破百万，并成为2000年法国卖座冠军大片。 　　丰富经验的巴黎警探皮耶（让·雷诺 Jean Reno 饰）来到大学城侦查被绞杀的尸体高悬在山崖上的离奇命案。经过一番调查后尼芒斯发现：这所著名学府历史悠久，人才 辈出，但校方为了推行精英观念，竟让教职员间世代通婚。与此同时，充满冲劲的当地年轻警察麦斯（文森特·卡索 Vincent Cassel 饰）则在小教堂追查20年前神秘失踪的少女，有人入侵了十八年前死于车祸的十岁女孩朱迪丝的墓室，并在那里涂画纳粹标志。看似孤立的两起案件却有着内在联系，于是两个办案风格大异其趣的人不得不变成搭档，联手侦破其中的秘密。经过层层抽丝剥茧，终于使隐藏在案件背后的真相浮出了水面。Parisian murder detective commissioner Pierre Niemans is called to Gueron, a self-sufficient, prestigious university in a mountain valley, to investigate the murder on 32-year old professor and librarian Rémy Caillois, whose corpse was found 50 meters high on a steep mountain side, naked, horribly covered in bruises and bleeding wounds, the result of some five hours of bestial torture including quasi-surgical amputation of hands cauterized to prevent bleeding to death- and eyes. Guernon is a closed society of virtually incestuous scientists, de facto succeeding to their parents' posts; the eye-doctor, formerly on the staff, says hereditary genetic diseases are the price of such elitism, but in recent years spread to the simple farming families. Inspector Max Kerkerian examines two crimes in the town: a school break-in with theft of old photos and archive papers as well as a graveyard desecration of Judith Herault, the daughter of local nun Andrée, who lives in a dark cell since 15 years and mumbles the demons who made an attempt of both of their lives have returned to prevent the child endanger their secret. As both police investigations continue, the loner sleuths meet; secrets and other corpses are found, till it all ties together.
