With the money the three want to open a shop for clothing in the United States. But their dream turns out to be more difficult to realize than the assassination.

Comments: Good performance by Marie Gillain. Marie Gillain is excellent as Nathalie in this Tavernier's drama. Not one of his best by the way. In this genre, see Requiem for a Dream which is a lot better.
