Shut up. - Open up.

Come here.

Shut up, Aldo.

Who's there? - Gendarmerie.

Open up and muzzle the dog. It's the gendarmerie.

Raoul. - Muzzle your dog.

Hold the dog or he'll escape. Damn you, Raoul.

Come here, Aldo.

What have you done now?

Stupid kid. Jerk.

You deserve a slap in the face.

You ruin everything. - Are you talking to the police now?

What have you done now?

What did you do next?

Inside. - Quiet.

He's been stolen from the locker rooms.

Were you talking to me? - Keep an eye on your child.

Should we search his room again?

We can't, because he's a minor.

We follow the law in this house. So we don't do anything.

You have come for nothing.

What a great job. Lazy buggers.

Open up. - We have no charges.

Open up. - He's a minor, Chartier.

Let it go. Come on, let's go.

Chartier, damn it.

Shut up. - Stop.

Don't hit him.

Hey.

What are you doing?

Stop.

Stop it. Don't hit him. Please.

What are you doing? Let go of him.

Son of a bitch. Come on. You're in my house.

This is my house.

{ "THREE MONTHS AFTER DEPARTURE STILL NOTHING

ITALIAN CATHOLIC MISSION

I want it lower. - Don't move or I'll poke you.

Wait a minute... - No, open up.

More.

No. - So?

Arrange it with your mother. - No.

About the cannelloni and the orchestra. Tell.

Or we take the cannelloni and no orchestra...

...Or the orchestra and no cannelloni.

That's it, for a handful of cannelloni.

Then we look like vultures.

I'm not talking about that.

Salvatore, we're a little tight on funds.

Do you understand?

Cicina. - Do you understand?

Cicina. - Pépé.

Cicina, come see your daughter's dress.

I don't have time. You're in charge.

You take care of it.

We wanted an orchestra for the wedding.

Luigi, Gina is busy. Go away.

No, wait. I'll change my clothes.

Gina wants her uncle to take care of the music.

I would love that.

I'll do it. - Thanks.

Bye. - Bye.

Where are you going? Your father's accounts needs to be updated.

I did that this morning. - No.

Does Paul know you're going out? - Yes, he's coming later.

Are you sure?

Don't let her...

...ride that moped. - Yes.

If anything happens to her, I'll break your skull.

Bye, Mom.

The stores are closing. I have to go.

How much do you want? - Not much.

Enough to buy shoes.

Get what you need. - Yeah, no worries.

I'll pay you back at the end of the month. Bye.

Wait, I don't understand something.

Did you just give her money?

The wedding is coming up. She needs shoes.

Is she stressed because the stores are closing?

Do you realize what you are doing?

We can barely pay for the wedding already.

We have to choose between the cannelloni and the orchestra.

And you give money to your sister? I don't get it.

This is a tragedy, not her shoes.

I can help you. - I can't pay you.

Your parents helped me.

You scared me.

What happened? - How is it?

Yes, the doctor took a long time. Sorry.

Does it hurt? - No.

What happened?

Shall we tell him?

Gina wanted me to do something about my nose.

For the wedding photos.

It's better. - Right...

I thought it was kind of ugly.

Thank you. - It's a joke.

It's a joke, Luigi. - Right.

Are you okay? - Yes, I'm undressing him.

Yes, she's finishing me off.

So. - We're not going to lose.

Because I know you.

He completes us.

No, that one doesn't count.

You touched me. - I saw it vibrate.

Quiet, children.

Cécile and Elina are seven and eight. Their disappearance is worrisome.

The investigators are not ruling out any leads.

Do you know who Elina's father is? The Calabrian.

No.

He rented a room from your father.

He was? Shit. - Yes.

What are you doing here?

We do the work of the police ...

...Because we see that nothing is happening.

If we say that the girls don't come back on their own...

...they say they ran away.

Do something anyway, police.

The judicial police have the case. What can the gendarmerie do?

That's 25,000 flyers. - A bullet in the head. Done.

So 25,000 chances to find them. - Do you hear what you're saying?

This poster campaign is a significant commitment.

Don't chatter. - At the same time.

What motivates you, ma'am? - We want to help the family.

They are so overwhelmed. We have to do what we can.

We have to help them now. We can't wait.

Yes, it's urgent.

People from here also went to help....

How does this action affect you personally?

It shows a lot of solidarity and brings us together.

And it brings us hope. - And the parents too.

Especially the parents. - Thank you very much, sir.

As you see...

...there is a lot of solidarity to find Cécile and Elina.

Stop. I'll lock you up if you do.

It's all right. What's happening to us?

Stop.

Come upstairs. Your father wants to talk to you.

What does he want? - Hurry up.

I'm coming.

I have to go to my father's.

Don't tell him to stay the night. He won't.

No. - Don't laugh. Hurry up.

You can't stay overnight.

Hold on. - Hurry up.

Don't dawdle.

See?

You're crazy.

What are you doing? You can't stay overnight.

I'm giving you a goodbye kiss.

A goodbye kiss. - Did you hear what she said?

No, because I don't understand Italian.

I'll teach you.

Yes, teach me.

You can't stay overnight.

Catano.

Do you have anything for us? - No, not yet.

And, Chartier?

You have to avoid it. Don't block it with your nose.

Watch the door.

Chartier? Do you want to start earlier? So now?

No problem. - Thank you. And I want to say one more thing.

Because of your actions yesterday. I have to prepare a report.

The gendarmerie of Charleroi is no Miami Vice.

Got it? - Yes, brigadier.

There's a client for you.

LÉON WIECK, BORN JANUARY 24, 1952, SINGLE, NO CHILDREN

PARENTS RESEARCH ON THE SIDELINES

You took your time.

Are you new here?

Léon Wieck, right? - Yes.

Born on January 24, 1952 at Notre-Dame, Charleroi.

122 Rue de Champignonnière. Single, no children.

Do we know each other?

Do you have any information for the gendarmerie?

Marcel Dedieu, Rue Basse-Sambre...

The scrap dealer? - That's what he wants you to believe.

Marcel, a scrap dealer?

No, he conspires with the Santoses and so on.

Pig trade, false documents...

Do you want to file a complaint against him?

No, I'm not filing a complaint, because I'm not a saint either.

My name is in old files.

Fake documents and all that...

Why exactly are you here, Mr. Wieck?

Thank you for calling me "sir.

Your colleagues often don't respect me.

They don't even write down what I say.

Marcel...

The other day we celebrated Tonio's birthday.

We were drinking at the station café.

Then we drove home in Marcel's van. He was driving.

We saw two girls walking on the sidewalk.

He stopped next to them

...and suddenly said, "Shall we get them?

I looked at him and said: 'That's a joke, right?'

'No. Tonio has debts and stuff.

So we get 150,000 francs per girl.'

It's weird.

Did he mean it or had he been drinking?

He meant it. He was furious.

He grabbed me like this, with his hand over my mouth...

...to show me how to do it.

Then I got angry, too. I said, "Get the hell out of here.

I wouldn't do that for a billion.'

Was that incident...

...before or after Cécile and Elina disappeared?

It was last month.

At most two, three weeks ago.

And then something else.

Marcel is working on his basements.

He's been renovating them for two or three years.

Two years of renovating basements? Why would that be?

I don't know. - You don't know?

Am I the agent or you?

I wrote it all down.

We'll call you back after verification.

Thank you for your time. - I've said enough.

Perfect. - Do you have anything for me?

This is the gendarmerie, not a flea market.

Maybe 500 francs for a meal? - Come on.

Nice notes. - He writes everything down.

So serious. - It's good that they're getting to know each other.

He's back. How many pages for your statement?

What was it now? Gadhafi's gold? Kennedy's assassination?

Was he abducted by aliens?

How much did you pay? Did you pay with your mouth?

The Tuareg treasure? - He looks tired.

The intelligence expert. Beware.

An exclusive.

He refused 150,000 francs for two girls.

That was for Cécile and Elina.

That much? - The case is closed.

We close the gendarmerie and leave you here.

Dedieu renovates his cellars like two years.

Interesting information. - Yes.

Forget Wieck. He's a notorious liar.

Do you know Dedieu? - Not personally.

I'll explain.

He's already raped raped a minor.

He may have kidnapped Cécile and Elina.

I set up an operation to make sure.

Operation Maldoror. - I want in, Brigadier.

You're still taking exams for the judicial police?

The gendarmerie is not an American soap opera.

I chose this uniform to make a difference.

I want those girls to come home.

You know... - I'm not like those idiots.

Let me finish.

Yes, brigadier. - Thank you.

Catano has never embellished a report before.

He probably likes you. - No, it really happened that way.

You don't have to sink any deeper. Nothing escapes me.

That goes for you, too, doesn't it?

The obvious details. - Details?

There are plenty of those in your file.

What did I see? Yes.

'Expelled from three schools. Allergic to authority.'

With the fight in the brothels at the station.

...and your father's armed robberies you've come a long way.

But as long as you follow orders...

...I don't care about your past.

Unless you can link the Santos clan can link the Santos clan to Marcel Dedieu.

Do you have a strong connection to them?

I know the Santoses very well. - Very important.

I have no investigating judge and no money.

Do you really understand what you're getting into?

Do the judicial police think like you? - Maldoror is Catano, you and I.

We will catch him soon. - Not without proof.

Good. But we can search his house, though.

Listen carefully. Maldoror is a surveillance operation.

Stay with him constantly and catch him in the act.

Don't catch him earlier.

We don't want to be laughed at by the other departments.

Reform is coming. Local policing is coming.

The gendarmerie can strike a huge blow...

...by targeting a repeat offender like Dedieu.

Got it?

Said among ourselves...

I don't want to end my career end here, too.

Give my bike back.

I have a big garden.

Here we go. See?

Come with me to my house.

No. Leave me alone.

I don't want to.

It's going to be fun. - Sarah.

I don't want to. - Who are you, sir?

Come on. - No.

Come here, Sarah. - My bike, Miss Hélène.

He's got my bike. - It's going to be okay.

LOCAL POLICE

WHITE MERCEDES

Do you want to take that? - Yes.

What is it? - The local police.

Put it on the pile. I'll look later.

Then help me anyway. Dammit.

What's wrong? - Nothing.

Honey, what's wrong? - Nothing.

You can talk to me. - It's nothing.

Tell me.

Elina's parents came to dinner and I hid in the storage room.

I feel so stupid.

I get it.

We'll be fine. We'll find them.

I'll find them. Promise.

Is nobody hurt? - No.

Mom.

Did you stay put? - No, I can't.

Are your parents happy?

Finally.

She's found the one. Not a Sicilian, but still.

He's okay, though. - A good guy.

I've heard good things.

But I'm learning Italian.

We met in a library.

We both came there to study.

At one point I saw her.

In between pages? - Yes.

I was looking for books Which were right next to her.

When I saw it was the garden section.

...I thought: I'm going to get caught.

But eventually I was able to talk to her.

Love is patient. Love is about being helpful.

I thought you were there for me.

I didn't even know you were studying.

But I knew that we would talk to each other.

Love is not jealous.

She does not boast and is not overly proud.

She doesn't do anything inappropriate.

She doesn't do anything out of self-interest and doesn't get carried away.

She holds no grudges.

She does not rejoice in injustice.

But she finds joy in truth.

She wears everything. She relies on everything.

She hopes for everything. She endures everything.

Love will never fade.

The word of the Lord.

What I wanted to tell you is.

Have self-confidence.

Evil is all around us....

...But the Lord says That He has defeated evil.

So let's rejoice.

Let us always seek the happiness that is within reach.

Jeanne, will you become my wife?

Yes, Paul.

I want to.

And do you want to be my husband?

Yes, I do.

I take you to be my husband And give myself to you.

I take you to be my wife And give myself to you.

To remain faithful to each other in good times and bad...

...And cherish each other Till death do us part.

They are married.

Long live the bride and groom.

Long live the bride and groom.

Thank you.

The kiss.

The kiss.

Everyone on the dance floor.

Gina, did you enjoy it?

Thank you.

One more time.

Long live the bride and groom. Come on, louder.

Thank you. Applause for my brother, the musician.

You heard emotion in my voice.

My first cousin is getting married.

All together.

The kiss.

Like this. Cut to it.

Congratulations.

Where are you going? - I'll be right back.

What are you doing here? - You look handsome.

What are you doing here, Rita? - You look handsome.

It's Hinkel, your boss.

He called me with a lot of questions.

What questions?

He told me the good news.

Calm down. I said it's out.

Go away. Someone will take you home.

Somebody will take you home.

Please. - I want to be here.

I want to be here.

Please.

Aren't you ashamed? On my wedding day.

Don't touch me. - What do you mean?

What do you mean?

Someone will take you home.

No. I'm staying here. I'm staying with you.

Fuck.

Wait. I'll clean it up.

Look. - No.

I'll clean it up. - Never mind.

No, not with your coat.

Paul, what are you doing?

There's glass.

Hold on. Sorry.

I want to stay here. - No.

Paul, who is this?

Who am I? - She's nobody.

I'm nobody? I'm his mother.

You're beautiful. I'm his mother.

I'm so proud of you.

Please, Rita. - You're beautiful.

Someone will bring you home. - I'm proud of you.

No, Gina, wait.

Why didn't you invite your father? - He's stuck.

Why do you ask? - No idea.

You say you're an orphan And I see your mother.

Legally, no. She has been declared unfit.

I didn't lie. Come inside with me.

Damn it. - Come inside with me.

Why didn't you say anything?

What do you want to know? What should I have said?

I don't have a family. I don't have anything.

Why didn't you say anything?

I'm sorry.

I'm really sorry.

I didn't have anything for you.

How's it going? - Hey, Jacky.

How are you? - Good.

What are you waiting for, Renard?

Come on.

Come to daddy.

Come on.

Put those on the table.

Come on.

Damn.

Damn.

Don't be an idiot. I'm getting angry.

Give it here.

Stop it. Keep it simple. Give it here.

Come here, big rabbit.

Come to daddy.

Stop. Damn it. I'm getting angry.

What did I ever do to you? Fuck.

What did I ever do to you? Stop it. Give it here.

Good. Here.

Bastard.

Jerk.

Five, six... Perfect.

THE BRIDE WAS TOO PURE

Is your mother up there?

You're useless now.

Except to waive fines. Fuck you.

Don't talk to me like that.

I'm talking to the fat bastard you are.

Even though your mother is no longer profitable.

My mother never worked here.

She worked at night at numbers 22 and 27. Until 1978.

And at 119 when your mother put the guy out...

...who screamed during the 1982 World Cup.

When you guys were defeated by Argentina?

You lost 1-0 after a goal by Vandenbergh in the 62nd minute.

Only you remember such things.

The police are here, Mon.

Hello, Mrs. Santos.

Roberto, dear, leave us alone.

Don't stand there like that. Give me a kiss.

Sit down.

He misses you.

Do you need money?

Very nice, but that's not the point.

You look stupid with your hair like that.

Like a cop.

Thank you.

If Roberto had been so smart, he would have studied...

...And he would have become important.

But you...

You always do what you want.

I now have my first real case.

Marcel Dedieu.

Are you looking for the girls?

Is it him?

He's been in jail for years for raping minors.

He has probation under supervision.

Under supervision?

I wonder by whom.

Repentance is wasted on Marcel.

Because of him I no longer work with smugglers.

Mrs. Santos, if you have anything that can help me...

...you know where to find me.

Do you ever visit your father?

No. I have nothing to do with him.

You can't outrun your blood.

Is she beautiful? - Who?

Who?

Yes. But Sicilian.

Then I have to pray for you.

This is not what you described.

Did you use all the wedding money? - No, not all of it.

You're going to garden. - This is our mansion.

You will get lost.

Look. - No, it shouldn't be like that.

What do you think is inside?

Open the door, ma'am. Welcome to your home.

What?

Local police, with Eddy Pardo. - Hello, sir.

Paul Chartier, gendarmerie of Charleroi.

I'm calling about message 1139 of June 25.

A white Mercedes.

You're slow. I don't have the file anymore.

It was a long time ago. - Could... Hello?

Could the teacher remember the license plate number?

How long has it been? I faxed.

I only just found out. It's urgent.

If you have any information... - I don't have the file anymore.

Do you have anything? - Amnesia.

Especially when asked like this. Bye.

Hello?

He's crazy. He hung up.

Oh, Mathilde...

Mathilde.

Is this about the license plate? - Yes.

And the fax we received.

I have the report here. But it's a very long list....

...And I don't see the license plate number you gave.

Give it here. I'll do a search.

Sorry, I prefer Eddy to be here.

We were supposed to come by. He's not here?

Sorry. I can call him.

No, we don't want to disturb him.

We'll wait for him. - Okay.

Do you have a cigarette, Sonny?

I quit. Remember?

Can I have a cigarette?

Yes. They are menthols, though.

Not very. I suck at everything.

Thanks.

Come outside with me.

Maybe the missus would like to join us.

Since his wedding he's been calling everyone miss.

It's his thing.

A bad habit. - No big deal.

I'm not married. - Really?

That changes everything. Ricardo.

Nice to meet you. - Nice to meet you. I'm Laeticia.

It looks like an asylum with that thing.

Like in that movie with the cannibal.

You're very good.

Laeticia, I'm going to eat your liver with a glass of Chianti.

You're funny.

Because of certain lunatics here is really necessary.

I can imagine that.

Laeticia, do you want to join us for a smoke?

No... I mean...

Okay. But in front of the door, because I'm alone.

Just quickly. - Where's the restroom?

Behind you. The first door is closed.

You should join the ladies. - Thank you.

Have you been working here long?

Yes, for a while.

Wait. - What is it?

Come on.

I don't know... - What?

Paul, are you okay?

What are you doing?

Did you memorize the license plates? - Wait.

I have 19, but two are missing.

How many?

How many? - No, I have them all.

What do you mean? - All 21 of them.

Is that a joke? - No. It's good.

Give me the notebook.

They traced a garage that's also in Honnelles. Where is that?

Near the French border.

Now I understand why there were so many French license plates.

How many French license plates?

Nine. Why?

The penultimate? - 118-AU-63.

I shouldn't have called you 'Sonny Crockett' should have called you 'Rain Man.

I remember what I see. - Then why are you a cop?

Now we have to compare those with our own list.

We check the license plates.

There's a new license plate. - New?

A new suspect.

I've never seen seen inside Dedieu's house.

Do you have Laeticia's number, too?

No. Just her license plate number.

Really? - No, I don't have it.

I don't have anything.

Do you really know the Santoses?

Yes. I've said that four times already.

How then?

My mother worked with them.

Roberto Santos and I grew up together.

He's like a brother to me.

Did you grow up in a brothel?

And then became a cop?

Someone told about a regular customer.

A lousy cop...

...had hit a robber beaten with a stick. Just like that.

He laughed his ass off. 'I hit him.'

Who was the robber?

Who do you think?

My father.

The judge let it go, because he was a cop.

Otherwise he would have lost everything.

Roberto found his address.

He wanted to beat him up.

I went alone the next day, without telling Roberto.

I went in the morning.

I said to him: "How can I become a cop?

Being on the right side.

This is meaningless without wiretaps.

You're serious.

What's that?

It's for me. Laeticia from earlier. - What?

She wants my body in her mouth. A fusion.

Are you leaving me? - You're the volunteer.

Good evening.

Stop. - Is Tonio on his way?

Stop.

My movie. Now.

Come on, Jacky. Take it easy.

Let go. - See what happens...

...If you don't do what I say. You'll get your movie.

I'm not paying anything. - I know that.

No.

It will be fine.

Stop it. - Take it easy.

Take it easy.

Stop. Damn it. - We'll work something out.

Son of a bitch.

You'll be fine.

I'm trying to be patient. - We'll sort this out.

You guys guessed that. Got it?

No worries. - You don't understand.

Trust us. See you soon.

Be careful what you promise.

Jacky Dolman, of La Hulpe. Multiple companies, one in the Ardennes.

Linked to the SOS Africa scandal. - And him?

Didier Renard, guilty of drug trafficking.

He uses himself. He lives off Marcel Dedieu.

That garage is a base of operations.

In Honnelles. We looked at the bylaws...

Dolman is a director of the company Edelweiss...

...but Renard is the manager. That doesn't suit him.

I called yesterday. The person didn't know Renard at all.

Did you call? - Yes.

Without mentioning my name.

Who took this picture?

Me. - Wait. I don't get it.

For the record...

The local police led us to the garage.

And the two meet in the evening at Marcel Dedieu's house in Charleroi.

There was another person there who we have not yet identified.

We don't have a picture, but he's almost six feet tall.

About 80 kg. And he was wearing flip-flops.

And the link to the missing girls?

The local police were wrong with the white Mercedes.

It was always the same car, but with different license plates.

At least one came out of that garage.

Exactly. And these are the license plates.

Do we have a picture of the car?

No. - No.

The van From Cécile and Elina's abduction...

...was not a Mercedes.

No, but... - Is Honnelles to Charleroi 100 km?

No, 82. But the same network.

Linked to the Ardennes and Dedieu. It matches.

I wanted to have the house of a suspect to be watched.

Are you playing Columbo all over Belgium now?

No. - Clean up this mess.

Your schedules are already hard to justify...

...So stay focused.

Marcel Dedieu is a minor with conditional supervision.

He has no money or resources for major crimes.

Sgt. - No, Chartier.

Don't forget that Maldoror doesn't exist.

Don't make me close this operation.

Because I'll do that before I get hurt.

Do you know what this is?

It's blood. What else does he need?

He's already risked his life once.

What happened to him?

He was shopping and robbers came.

He wanted to play the hero. They grabbed his head....

...and slammed it into the freezer.

Seriously? - He's not taking any more chances.

Damn, it's Renard. - We'll get him.

A French license plate. It can't be. We'll get him.

Turn off the engine. - Yes.

Your registration.

Your ID card and driver's license.

Registration...

What happened to your head?

This is not my car.

So what? I asked you something.

I hurt myself.

Stay here.

No, a gray Citroën. BX. Over.

I'll check it out. - Thank you. Over.

Expired ID card. Unreadable driver's license.

Can you get a chassis number...

...link to a vehicle? About.

It's fake.

Negative. Let him go. Over.

You can't. His certificate is fake. I have it.

Is there a warrant behind this? Over.

Hinkel's command. Over.

Damn.

Letting him go Does send a message to Dedieu.

Speaking of messages...

Well congratulations.

Congratulations

Congratulations, dear Lulu

Congratulations

Blow out.

Do you want to?

Here we go.

So...

A big piece. For you. - For me.

The biggest. - Of course.

Perfect.

CÉCILE AND ELINA, THE INVESTIGATION IS AT A STANDSTILL

Name, last name and date of birth, please.

Goryn Vladimir. January 23, 1952.

May I untie him? - Yes.

Do you want to sign here?

How long has he been detained? - Two, three days. He'll be released soon.

That's our excuse. Do you guys know what you're doing here?

Yes. We search everything.

No.

The search warrant...

...cites a specific offense.

Catano. - Violent theft, receiving stolen goods...

...and aggravated theft. - So.

You don't touch anything outside the garage.

You don't ask questions that are irrelevant. Understood?

Where is the basement?

What basement?

When I interviewed Wieck on June 25, 1995.

...he said that Dedieu built basements. Where are they?

Where on the map?

You see he was lying.

This is your only chance.

Come on. Get out.

Use your walkie-talkie in case of trouble.

Gendarmerie of Charleroi.

Gendarmerie. Open up.

Gendarmerie of Charleroi.

What is this about?

We have a search warrant from the prosecutor and judge...

...for Marcel Dedieus house.

He lives here, right?

He's not at home.

We're coming in anyway. Excuse me.

Will it take long? - If you cooperate, no.

What are you looking for?

Vehicle documents. Keys.

Can you show me the garage?

Luc.

Come down.

My son will show you those. I have to feed these.

He goes with him.

I don't want you calling during the search.

Hello.

Can you show me the garage?

Is that your bike?

A pink one?

After this, you show me your room.

Can you show me the basement?

Yes or no?

Is there a basement? May I see it?

That's not what we're here for.

And these shorts?

Whose is that?

What business is that of yours?

Seal it. - Chartier.

Can you photograph this?

Why is contraception lying here?

From before or during pregnancy? Or after?

That is none of your business.

You don't have many answers. Photograph this.

Do it. Rohypnol.

We're not allowed to do this.

I can't explain it to the judge.

A French-Bulgarian dictionary. Are you learning Bulgarian?

That's irrelevant.

A fake Bulgarian passport. Not bad.

Photograph that, too. Take the pictures.

Any more contraception? Just after giving birth?

Chartier. - What is this?

What is this? - You're going crazy.

Who signed this? - This is not allowed.

Answer. - It's an old drawing.

Take it easy. We're going to have trouble.

Photograph the passport.

Don't wait for me. Take the pictures.

You're ruining the search. Calm down.

Stop it.

Put the camera down and help me.

I'll call Hinkel.

Stay off the walkie-talkie Or you're going down. Put it down.

Help me. Damn you.

You're going too far, Chartier. Stop it.

Do as you are told.

The basement is not on the map, idiot.

What are you doing? - Stay put. Damn it.

I'm not taking the blame. - Fuck off.

Do you want to ruin your career?

Do that. That will make you happy.

Are you okay?

Are you happy now?

Good job. Great job for a cop.

Dedieu has a basement.

With canned food and peas. Great.

If this doesn't make the front page... - Be quiet.

Good job. It was worth it.

Didn't you hear that?

No. What?

Children whispering.

Baby crying upstairs.

Take it easy.

Take it easy.

We have children's drawings, little clippings....

...a driver's license, money, car keys, fake passports.

Probably human trafficking as we thought.

I took as many pictures as I could....

...But thanks to him it was harder than expected.

In this dresser in the back...

...I found the rohypnol.

Chartier? - I heard whispers...

What? - Children whispering.

You didn't hear anything. Dedieus children.

No... Shut up. - Shut up yourself.

You've done enough. - Take it easy.

Are you ready?

Dardenne, leave us alone for a moment.

Brigadier, you have to believe me. Rohypnol is not even written down properly.

Dardenne followed my orders. Don't insult him.

Had sent Catano. - He did his job.

From now on, he is your immediate superior.

He has been promoted to lieutenant colonel.

Disobedience will be punished.

I heard them. I'm not crazy.

You ignored the framework of the search.

Now there's a complaint and it's my fault.

Brigadier, the labels on the videos:

June 24, 1995, June 27, 1995, April 18, 1989.

Enough, Chartier. - Yes, April 18, 1995.

Stop listing dates like a computer. Get to the point.

The TV recordings.

Each time in the weeks that the children were abducted.

Are you sure? - I want to go back.

I'm forwarding your report to the intelligence community.

And then?

We let them do their work. Coordinate.

Your statement should make a difference.

We have to hurry if the girls are there.

Hello, Axel. Charles Hinkel for Judge Remacle.

Stay on the line.

Nadine, it's me again.

I want the warrant extended.

To go back? - Yes.

We think the suspect...

...filmed stolen vehicles.

I want a second visit...

...to confiscate the videotapes.

This afternoon.

Can we look at these afterwards?

Where is this allowed? - Wait. There's no more room.

In my trunk.

What? - In my trunk.

Paul. - It takes ages.

One TV, one player, a thousand videos.

They're leaving tomorrow. What are you going to do?

With that idiot they don't pay attention.

We'll bring those back tomorrow. - No, that's not our job.

Can you really not one night without your girlfriend?

I'll buy you condoms. - Go fuck yourself.

What are you doing?

The floor plan of the house...

There was room for another basement or door.

Stop it. Come to bed.

There was another hiding place, behind the cover.

Stop. - Not on the map.

I'm sure... - Stop it. Come to bed.

Behind the boxes... - You don't eat or sleep.

Come on.

I'm going back tomorrow anyway.

I have to... - Stop it. You can't do anything.

You knew Elina's family didn't you?

Don't you care?

I'm pregnant.

Are we going to be parents?

I can't do it alone.

You have to take care of us, understand?

Will you be there? Promise?

Hello. - Hello.

Hello, ma'am. I'm Gina's mother.

Hello, mother. Please, mother.

How nice. - And my aunt.

Hello. - Hello. Nice to meet you.

Thank you. - Delicious Parmesan cheese.

Thank you very much.

Do you like the pasta? - I'll tell you in a minute.

Delicious. It's very good. Thank you.

Delicious pasta.

Who's cooking?

My mother.

These are great. No, thanks.

Water? - Yes.

Thank you.

Cheers. - Cheers.

Thank you for coming.

May I toast with water?

To our family. - To our family.

And to our new guest. - Welcome.

Welcome to the family. - Thank you very much.

My daughter is nice, isn't she? - Yes, and beautiful.

Most beautiful. - She gets that from her mother.

URGENT MISSING PERSONS REPORT

MAKE A CALL FOR

TINE VAN BAERT, BORN FEBRUARY 25 1978, MAÏTÉ BATTS, BORN JUNE 3, 1979

MISSING SINCE 23 JULY 1996

Intelligence confirms...

...that a witness saw the girls saw the girls getting into the casino in Ostend.

Did they leave the party at 10 p.m.?

That was all the information. No link to Cécile and Elina.

And Dolman? Our clue. He can pay 150,000 francs per girl.

The judicial police don't help. Forget your network theory.

Dedieu has accomplices. A scrap dealer can't pay that.

Only through his network do we find the girls alive.

Brigadier, are you there? - Is it your gut feeling?

Yes, Dolman can. He's stone-faced.

The operation is not yielding anything. It's been going on for months.

Do you want your stroke for the gendarmerie?

Four men and listening devices.

I am asking the judicial police for cooperation.

No. Tine and Maïté are much older than Cécile and Elina.

Maybe they are in bed with boys.

This doesn't fit your theory. - What theory?

I'm talking about young girls. Pedophile trafficking of unknown magnitude.

What don't you understand?

Watch your words and your tone.

We must not stop and leave them behind.

If Dedieu is involved.

...I don't want to be blamed for it.

Got it?

No. We're not stopping. - Stop it. That's an order.

No. Damn it.

The investigators see it as runaways....

...but the parents are convinced of a kidnapping.

According to Tine Van Baert's father...

...the search for the young girls only after ten days.

No testimony from the family...

...has been taken seriously by the gendarmerie.

Only after this period did the police begin to search

...and digging in the sand...

...to no avail.

Why don't you share details with the parents?

They are their daughters, not the state's.

I will ignore the demagogic side of your question.

This is the law.

Sorry to remind journalists and parents need to remind...

...That citizens are not leading the investigation.

Does the disappearance of Tine and Maïté...

...related to those of Cécile and Elina?

I'm an investigative judge. I don't have a crystal ball.

If the investigations are related...

...Justice will look into that.

It was. - Ms. Remacle.

One more question.

Damn.

Come on.

Marcel.

Where were you? Do you have the video?

How much do you actually get per video?

What business is that of yours?

What? - Do you want to screw me?

Do you want to?

What excites you so much?

My ass?

My sucking mouth?

Hands at home. Don't ever call me gay.

Then don't screw me.

Why?

What do you mean?

I'm doing business with Jacky now. - No.

Have you seen your face? I have the contacts. I'll take care of it.

Then you have nothing. - Nothing?

Give me the video. Now, bastard.

Now you're not so smart.

Here, asshole.

I'll saw your arm off.

Tell Jacky I'm not sharing.

Asshole.

Didier.

Where is Tonio? - We'll see him later.

He let me borrow his car to pick you up.

Get in. - Where to?

Get in. I had to pick you up.

Get in. - Okay.

Good.

Who is that?

Didier. A friend of Tonio's.

He's not doing so well. He needs sugar.

Would you like some ice cream?

No. - A calippo?

Would you like a calippo, Didier?

If you want sex, it's not free.

Only Tonio gets it for free.

Okay. We'll do it your way.

And then we'll all have ice cream.

Where is Tonio?

I look at you tenderly

I would have liked to talk to you

But I didn't have the courage

I would have loved to take you

To walk by my side

Without thinking...

Without thinking about all kinds of things

Hold on.

Give me the video.

What? - The video.

Tonio said you know where it is. - I don't have it.

Really, you don't have it?

No, I don't have the videos. - Give them here.

I don't have those. I don't do blackmail.

Do you? - Yes.

It doesn't matter.

It doesn't matter. No worries.

It doesn't matter.

Go get ice cream for me.

In the trunk.

Two ice creams and a calippo.

Go ahead. - Okay.

Do as I say.

Come here. Suck it.

Suck on the calippo.

This way, yes.

Suck on the calippo.

Tasty, isn't it?

Mouth open. You like it.

You like it. Open.

Is the calippo tasty?

No.

Come on. Suck on the calippo. You love it.

Like this, yes.

I think of you often, ma'am

I see your face often, ma'am

I can't.

I can't.

No.

Your wife is in labor. There's a little problem.

A breech or umbilical cord around the neck.

As soon as I know more, I'll let you know.

Breech presentation?

The baby is not lying well.

The gynecologist is there. We'll see what he decides.

Delivery room or operating room. - Nothing serious?

Nothing serious. You'll be fine.

Are you sure? - I'm busy.

I'm waiting for news. - What?

Not without me. Wait.

I'll be right back. - Paul.

Paul. - Paul, where are you going?

I haven't seen him in ages.

The last time you went fishing.

Yes. Over a year ago.

It's great.

Here are the muppets. Just what we need.

We're going to Rue Basse-Sambre.

For the arrest.

The judicial police are in charge.

We've been working on it for months. May we go?

Only now? - The arrest is today.

Take your cop boyfriend and fuck off.

Fuck off. - No, we have to go.

Are you deaf? Don't you get it?

Piss off. See you never again.

Go.

Bastards.

René.

Yes. - The gendarmerie is coming.

Call Hinkel. - I've already spoken to him.

They're arresting Dedieu without us.

Yes, here he comes.

Hospital. - I'll call back.

We're going past the chapel.

Where to? We can't.

See? And now? - We go past the chapel.

We can't.

It doesn't matter. Turn around.

Pass the chapel. - Enough.

Your wife is in labor. I'll take you back.

No more nonsense.

Stop the car.

Damn it, Paul. Where are you going?

Come back here, Chartier.

What are you doing?

I asked you something.

This is not the time to clean up.

I've never seen them before.

I haven't.

Fuck off.

Let go. - Don't move. Arms up.

The first tests on the van....

...of Patricia's abduction confirm...

...that Didier Renard was present, the addicted accomplice...

...who denies having abused her during her incarceration...

...as alleged by Marcel Dedieu.

Dedieu has been cooperating since his arrest.

He did not hesitate to show investigators showing the hiding place...

...deviously hidden in the basement of his house...

...on Rue Basse-Sambre.

Interior Minister...

...has praised the diligence of the judicial police....

...who managed to free Patricia managed to free Patricia as quickly as possible.

I praise the coordination and efficiency of the gendarmerie....

...in the arrest by the judicial police.

Can you tell us more about operation Maldoror?

I found it to the gendarmerie and me...

...to set up an operation...

...which helped in the arrest of Dedieu and the rest.

That's all I'm allowed to say. Sorry.

That's it. There will be an official statement.

And my report on Dedieu? - What do you have?

The basement. I heard them.

I'm not retarded. - Let go.

Take it easy. - Let go of him.

Let go. Calm down.

If anything happens to the girls, I'll tell them about Maldoror.

Why did I trust such a criminal?

What?

Your father can be proud of his jerk.

Acorn.

Take it easy.

Stop.

Hello. - Hello.

I have to ask you to go.

Time for breastfeeding.

Go ahead and have a cup of coffee.

Put your hand above the buttocks To pull her a little higher.

It's all right, dear. Like that, yes.

Are you okay? Doesn't it hurt? No?

Well done, honey. That's great.

See how well she drinks?

Nice, isn't it?

Well done, dear.

Good day, everyone.

Horror. There is no other word...

...for what was found in Marcel Dedieus house in Marcinelle.

The bodies of Cécile and Elina and that of an accomplice.

They may have been starved to death. Marcel Dedieu said so.

He also mentioned the kidnapping of Tine and Maïté....

...the two Flemish girls who disappeared last year.

Please. It's too hard on the baby...

...and very stressful for the mother.

Do you want to leave? - I'm sorry.

That's quieter for them. - I'll be right back, Gina.

I'll be right back.

So, yes. Take it easy.

Hello, Rita.

The kidnapped girls have been taken to Marcel Dedieus' house.

He was arrested on December 6 arrested for car theft.

He entrusted the girls to his wife, Monique Marini.

But she didn't take care of them.

When Dedieu was released in March.

...and came home , the girls were dying.

One of them was still alive , but would have died in his arms.

The prosecutor, Mrs. Mouscron, said.

...that the girls must have been dead for some time.

Close relatives and a psychologist are helping the family.

I can't say anything right now.

Is the autopsy still in progress? - The autopsy is in progress.

The autopsy of the two bodies in the garden

...should confirm that they are Cécile and Elina.

And that they were starved to death.

The gendarmerie has searched the basement investigated at least twice

...and reported nothing unusual.

Ma'am.

...the gendarmerie has Dedieus house twice searched.

Were the girls still alive then?

Searches took place. Twice.

But not as part of Cécile and Elina's case.

There was a search for evidence against Marcel Dedieu.

Unfortunately those searches yielded nothing.

Numerous videos were seized during the searches.

On them, evidence against Dedieu was found.

These images, and more explicit ones, come from the videos...

...which Dedieu recovered after his release...

...due to lack of equipment and time.

Marcel Dedieu, 53, has an extensive criminal record.

Theft, rape, assault, confinement of minors.

More than enough for a surveillance operation...

...which the agony did not prevent...

...that Marcel Dedieu and his henchmen made the girls suffer.

Kidnapped in front of the authorities.

How did they miss it? - In the home of Dedieu and his partner....

...would be searched further this morning.

A report from Sylvie Bastien.

This can't be true.

At home they would have been dead by now.

We had killed those jerks.

The legal system sucks.

What century are we living in?

Who killed them? The police killed them.

They are all guilty. They knew.

The police, the gendarmerie...

We don't understand any of that.

Sorry, but all those magistrates are useless.

How can this be?

Be Belgian? That's crazy these days.

I spit on all those jerks.

If those were my kids, I would leave now...

...to blow them all up.

Awful.

Stop.

You okay, handsome? - I'm fine.

They're taking everything off today or tomorrow.

Isn't Gina there?

She and Gloria are upstairs, with the pediatrician.

How is it?

Good. - Is there any news?

Let's see.

Tine and Maïté were found dead under Tonio Klaudes veranda.

The man sawn in half was found near Cécile and Elina.

We don't know why Dedieu killed him.

I recognize him.

Hinkel berated you.

What for?

Insubordination. Negligence.

And our reports?

There is nothing left. He has obliterated Maldoror.

You are fired.

You get nothing.

Wait until I get out of here. You and I...

No. There is no "you and me.

I asked for transfer.

They're looking for a new colonel.

I'm quitting. I'm sorry.

It's not over yet. I have rights.

The reporters have all over your family.

Is that me? - You must not stand out.

You must keep a low profile. Got it?

Help me out of bed. Gina.

No, lie down.

Gina, help me out of bed.

AGENT OF JEANNE D'ARC

Come on. We're going back to the room.

HE HEARD THEM, WALLED IN ALIVE

Come on, Paul.

We can't just go home. - Yes we can.

He says I didn't say anything about whispers.

I tell my side and then we'll see.

You know very well they won't listen.

You're an unemployed cop. Your word is worth nothing.

Screw Hinkel. He knew about it.

They knew about it and did nothing. They will pay for it.

Didn't your daughter and I not paid a long time ago?

You won't save them anymore. - What?

The perpetrators are trapped. It's over.

Dedieu is a loser.

How do you know that?

What do you know that the media don't?

The girls were for a network.

But you have no proof.

You don't even know whether they belonged to a network.

You only know they're dead.

They. Who are "they?

Cécile. Elina. Tine. Maïté.

You can't even mention their names.

I live constantly with their whispers. Do you get that?

I didn't hide When Elina's mother came.

Seriously?

If you hadn't stopped me, I could have found the hiding place.

What? - You heard me.

If I had found had found...

...I would have gone back the next day. Anyway.

It was you who begged me to stop.

Are you asking me to make the same mistake now?

You can't say that. - Of course I am.

You let them starve.

TONIO KLAUDE, CUT TO PIECES ALIVE

GIRL, 150

NO FAMILY, 180

Damn.

Damn.

Charles. Did we have an appointment?

I called, but your service isn't picking up.

Didn't you get my message message yesterday?

I might have. I've been busy.

I only have five minutes. Tell me quickly.

Jacky Dolman.

Do I know him?

He worked at your old office in Brussels.

Probably not as a lawyer.

What is this about?

He has ties all the way to China...

...But his file is empty. Why?

He works in the auto industry.

He knows a lot of businessmen and politicians.

And magistrates?

Don't you answer?

After all, you do have a career plan, don't you?

Bizarre how people change.

I came for information. Not a romantic date.

The hearing is waiting for me. Sorry for the wasted time.

Thank you, Charles.

He denies everything.

Jacky Dolman admits to knowing nothing about a pedo criminal network....

...that links him to Dedieu and his accomplices.

At this stage of the investigation...

...the president has lifted his remand.

He is allowed to go home.

As has been stated since the beginning of this investigation has been stated

...Mr. Dolman cannot be linked to the case of Cécile and Elina.

Nor is he linked to Marcel Dedieu.

The remand has been lifted. Mr. Dolman may now go home.

It was difficult because of his health. He is relieved.

But he has yet to go to trial....

...for the vehicle with which Patricia was abducted.

This hearing is separate from that file.

That one was only about the remand.

Every day a trial of its own. That comes later.

Have human remains been found...

...in Mr. Dolman's garage? Can you tell?

Mr. Dolman is over a year old...

...stepped down as director of Edelweiss.

He doesn't know what it is now.

Who is the victim? Did you know the victim?

Write this in your tabloids.

Presumption of innocence.

Is it fair to put someone through the mud....

...because I look like that?

I want the justice system to do its job...

...And that you, vultures...

...do not attack honest businessmen....

...while countless scoundrels remain unseen.

There stands a man before you who is disgusted by your practices.

Tell me, Mr. Dolman.

An enraged man. - Tell.

Hello, this is Paul and Gina.

Leave a message and we'll call back. Bye.

Hello, this is Paul and Gina.

Leave a message and we'll call back. Bye.

What are you doing? Why aren't you answering?

I've called 20 times. We need to talk.

You can't stay.

I can't stay with my parents either.

The little one needs you.

Please, Jeanne. You have to go.

Go away.

What?

Fuck off.

I would have preferred condoms.

Do you have the autopsy report? - No, I don't have anything.

No more documents. It's a mess.

Tell me if it was a woman. I found a hair.

Everyone cheats on each other.

Bring me the report. - No.

I need to know. Was it a woman?

I need to know. Tell me.

You need to rest.

You need to stop. Forget Dolman. Forget everything.

If I know, I can link her to Dolman...

...And shut down the network.

Rumor has it that Jacky Dolman ...

...is an unofficial informant.

In a case against human trafficking in England.

Police paid him with pills.

Is Hinkel involved?

Who is talking about Hinkel?

It must be.

This goes deep.

Dolman is very well protected.

Judge Remacle's old office represented him.

Dedieu paid for the kidnappings paid for with Renard's deals.

Renard was blamed. But the court didn't know

...that the police financed the network with the pills.

Dolman is inviolable. Understood?

It's over. - No, it's not.

Luis, you can't give up now.

We are so close. - I shouldn't have come.

I shouldn't have come. - You can't give up now.

Don't give up now. - Let go.

What do you want?

Hello. I want to see my wife.

Go away. You can't. - Just five minutes.

Just five minutes. - You can't. Go away.

No. Luigi, call Gina, please.

I want to see you. Come here, please.

What is it?

Would you please call Gina?

Five minutes. I want to give her this.

She's not here. Come back when you're calmer.

What do you mean, she's there.

Yes, she's here. Gina.

I want to see Gloria. - I'll show you what a Sicilian is.

Take it easy, Angelo. - You're a disgrace.

Gina. - Fuck off. No.

Gina. I want to see Gloria. Where is she? I want to see her.

Gina. Five minutes. - Take it easy.

Tell her to come, Luigi. - Take it easy.

Don't you want to talk to me?

What am I? Why won't you talk to me?

Look at me, damn it.

Gloria. Gina. - Take it easy.

Let my wife come. - Take it easy.

Stop, Luigi. Why are you doing this?

I want to see her. - Another time.

Give her this from me.

Leave now.

THE SMELL OF HATE

I asked a friend with a helmet...

...to watch the construction site.

It's nonsense. It's the same everywhere.

Yes, but it's over.

I know men like that.

It's tricky. Always being vigilant.

Asking them to move.

If you don't say anything. You know how it goes.

Three little blondes...

No. - Come on. Get in.

Get in.

Come here. Walking. - No.

No. - Walking, I said.

Sit down.

Everything okay?

Yes.

Come and sit here. - I don't want to.

No.

Mathilde. No.

Here.

Did you choose the name? - I liked that one.

Thank you.

I have a new job. I'll pay you back soon.

Your husband's silence has already repaid me.

And Roberto?

We have impulsive children.

It's better for yours If mine doesn't know anything.

I came to the court.

I saw Marcel Dedieu running away as if he were on fire.

For a while an officer ran after him.

Then I didn't see them anymore.

The prisoner took advantage of the distraction

...to escape the court...

...where he usually looked at his file.

Marcel Dedieu has a weapon from the gendarmerie....

...and is considered dangerous.

He held someone at gunpoint and took his car.

Then he abandoned the car and disappeared.

The audience is asked to remain calm

...and not to open up to strangers.

This is typical Belgium. Another Belgian story.

But this should never happen, anywhere.

If he escaped, a door has been left open.

He had help. I've said that all along.

He knew plenty of people in high places.

I'm amazed. It's a disgrace.

Such things should not happen. It was done on purpose.

It has to be.

Yes, I'm ashamed to be Belgian.

Such things should never happen.

After everything he's done.

It's difficult. Escape is impossible.

If you did it, so will he.

The politicians do nothing and neither do the police.

I live in a disturbed country.

He is the most wanted and most dangerous man.

I have children. No one should touch them.

Got it?

You can't.

I need to know where your mother had this made.

Our supplier is from here. Léon Wieck.

Don't shoot. I haven't yet...

Get out of my house. You don't have a warrant.

Look at me. Did Dedieu call you?

I don't know.

Where is he? - He wanted a passport.

It's in the refrigerator.

What is he doing?

Fuck off.

Way to go.

Please.

Nice. You got it right this time.

Were the girls in your basement in January 1996?

Look at me.

Answer.

Were they in your basement or not?

Answer.

Answer.

I recognize you.

I recognize you. You're that cop.

You're that cop. You can't do anything to me.

You said, "Be quiet.

It was you.

You can't make me do anything. Go ahead.

Shut up. - A cop can't kill me.

You can't make me do anything.

Paul Chartier...

...formerly of the gendarmerie of Charleroi, is back. What a turn of events.

He ended Dedieu's escape. Marcel Dedieu was shot dead.

Turn left.

There's someone in the visitor's room.

Go ahead.

Hello, Paul.

It's been a while.

Lieutenant general. - Call me Charles.

I'm shocked to see you like this.

This is not where you belong.

The good thing about police reform...

...is that I often have lunch with the federal prosecutor.

I asked him to review your case....

...and the initial conclusions are optimistic.

May I pack?

A significant reduction in punishment

...and early release in a few years...

...if you continue to behave so well.

I'm listening.

Jacky Dolman was died in a hunting accident.

This morning, federal police agencies received videos...

...with evidence against many of the people who were blackmailing Dolman.

Did you look at those?

I was the only one who got a blank video....

...with the name of the commissioner general.

Probably the video you had found....

...In Mathilde's house.

I have a picture of the man here....

...that you must have seen on the video.

I want you to identify him.

Do you recognize him?

I forgot.

I'm at a dead end, Chartier.

You're the only one who can help me.

Nothing escapes you.

What a shame.

You could have taken his place.

We are not that different.

I know what it's like to lose everything When you want to change things.

I'm done.

No, Chartier, please.

Are you ready?
