Introduction

‘Maldoror’ is the code name of a 1990s investigation into a child abduction case. But Belgium’s gendarmerie is at war with the police service, leaving a determined young officer on treacherous ground. Genre specialist Fabrice du Welz delivers a labyrinthine tale of peril, moral conflict and grotesquerie, with a crackling central performance from rising young star Anthony Bajon.
