Mathieu Kassovitz writes, directs and stars in this French hostage
drama. The film traces the events surrounding the real-life
abduction of 30 gendarmes by local Kanak separatist rebels in
France's South Pacific territory of New Caledonia in 1988. Sent to
accelerate the release of the hostages, negotiator Capt. Philippe
Legorjus (Kassovitz) soon finds himself caught between the demands
of Kanak leader Alphonse Dianou (Iabe Lapacas) and the machinations
of his political masters back in France, who, with an election
looming, are eager to show their decisiveness by resorting to
military action.
