Guillaume, a police detective, inherits his father’s bowling alley after his death and decides to pass it on to his distant and troubled half-brother, Armand, in the hope of helping him get his life in order. Tensions arise between the brothers when Guillaume begins investigating a series of murders centered around the hall. With shocking brutality, Mazuy draws on the conventions of film noir to question notions of inheritance, toxic masculinity, and violence in a patriarchal world.
