Gabrielle, une prostituĂ©e remet au nouveau juge Jacques Savard (Michel CĂ´tĂ©) une liste de noms de magistrats qui ont retenu ses services. MalgrĂ© les pressions de ses collègues incriminĂ©s, et le meurtre de l’avocat de Gabrielle, Savard hĂ©site Ă la rendre publique. Following the trial of a judge who was found with prostitute Gabrielle Angers (Geneviève Brouillette), Gabrielle gives a list of her clients to a new judge, Jacques Savard (Michel CĂ´tĂ©), which contains the names of some very influential judges and politicians. Dead bodies and death threats follow. Jacques’ own life seems to be in danger. Jean-Marc VallĂ©e made his feature debut with Liste Noire (Black List), and also edited the film. Described as a “strikingly stylish erotic thriller,” it was a first for its genre in QuĂ©bec cinema, and became the highest-grossing film in the province in 1995. It was honoured with nine nominations, include Best Film, at the 16th Genie Awards. |
