Synopsis
Vincent and Rebecca, just turned 18, meet at a cybercafe, and it is love at first sight. Two months later, Vincent's dead body is fished out of the Rhone River, and Rebecca cannot be found at all. It turns out that Rebecca and Vincent had plunged recklessly into the world of prostitution, and that Inspector Cagan and his colleague Mangin are seeking to understand and reconstruct what happened to them. In the course of his investigation, Cagan discovers that Vincent was a prostitute, securing clients via the Internet. And Rebecca, far from wanting him to change, was attracted to the easy money and pushed him further in that direction. Wanting to share in his experiences, Rebecca started to accompany him on the job. Eventually, they ended up prostituting themselves together. Questioning Vincent's clients and Rebecca's mother, the inspector watches as the corpses start to pile up, and he is forced to get more deeply involved in order to solve the murders and the mystery of Rebecca's disappearance.
