In this bare-knuckled brawl of a thriller, Simon, a former Toulon cop, has been reduced to working as an armored car driver after a tragic mistake seven years earlier brought him to the brink of professional and personal destruction. Since then, he’s been slowly rebuilding his life under the sympathetic eye of his ex-partner Franck. But the time for amends comes to a decisive end when Simon’s son shoots to the top of a crime syndicate’s hit list after he witnesses a killing by chance. To save his son from stop-at-nothing thugs, Simon enlists the help of Franck, and together they punch, shoot, crash and bleed their way through an ever-escalating nightmare that can only end in death or redemption. With inventive set pieces including a breathless bullet train pursuit, Mea Culpa is the latest harvest from a growing field of hard-nosed action films coming from France.
