Stationed in a remote town in Senegal, ineffectual police chief Lucien Cordier is routinely harassed by thugs and nagged by his adulterous wife Huguette. Pushed to the limits, Lucien finally flips, embarking on a killing spree aimed at ridding himself of his tormentors and anyone else who has ever slighted him. His 1981 black comedy/crime drama earned Tavernier an Academy Award nomination for Best Foreign Language film.
