Night Patrol

In the dimly lit avenues of Paris, a sudden political murder pulls the city’s most tenacious investigators into a maze of secrecy and power. Leo Gorce is a meticulous inspector whose dedication to procedure clashes with the chaotic currents of the capital, while his partner Gu Arenas brings a blend of street‑wise pragmatism and quiet intuition. Together they must sift through a web of hidden agendas, navigating a world where every hallway and cafe could conceal a clue or a concealed interest.

The case draws Diane Castelain, a sharp‑tongued journalist whose relentless pursuit of truth pushes her into the heart of the investigation. Her alliance with the inspectors adds a layer of media savvy and moral urgency, turning the inquiry into a public theater as much as a police operation. The trio’s dynamic oscillates between stark professionalism and uneasy camaraderie, each bringing a distinct perspective on how far the truth can be chased without losing oneself.

Behind the murder, whispers hint at an entrenched network of influential figures whose reach extends into the corridors of power. The atmosphere is thick with paranoia and the faint hum of unseen forces subtly nudging events in their favor. As the team delves deeper, the city itself becomes a character—its historic boulevards and rain‑slicked bridges reflecting both the elegance and the shadows of the French political landscape.

The tone balances tension with a muted, almost literary darkness, letting the audience feel the weight of each revelation without revealing the exact nature of the opposition. The film invites viewers to wonder how far the pursuit of justice can go when the very institutions meant to protect it are entangled in the very mystery they must solve.
