The Stronghold

Marseille, 2012, a time when the neighbourhoods in the north of the city sadly hold an undesirable record – that of being the area with the highest crime rate in France.

In this high-risk zone, the cops adapt their methods to the laws of the council estates, and sometimes overstep the mark.
