A lawless desperado or a headstrong young man persecuted by a racist police state? In 1976, the second trial of Pierre Goldman, divided France when the far-left activist was retried for four robberies, one of which resulted in two deaths. He denied any involvement in the latter case. By choosing to stage this judicial huis-clos, Cédric Kahn makes a soft but powerful entry into the delicate genre of the courtroom drama. He also unearths a black box of distinctly French passions, upheavals and splits, that extend far beyond the 1970s. (Cannes Film Festival)
