An undercover cop and a prison inmate play a tense game of cat and mouse in this brilliantly original thriller by the master of French noir
At one of France's toughest prisons, an undercover cop is attempting to trap an enemy spy by posing as a fellow inmate. So Frank and Hal find themselves holed up together in a grimy, rat-infested cell, each warily eyeing the other. As they plan a daring escape, an unexpected friendship ensues-but which is the cop and which is the spy?
Gritty and hard-hitting, The Wicked Go to Hell is a tense, paranoid 1950s thriller about duty and conscience, deception and loyalty, and about what it means to be human-whether you're the good guy or not.
