Immaculate (Sans laisser de traces)

Born in a middle class family, Étienne (Benoît Magimel, A Girl Cut in Two, Intimate Enemies (COL•COA 2008), The Piano Teacher) is now a successful corporate executive. Married to the upper class, elegant Clémence (Julie Gayet, Eight Times Up, Shall We Kiss? (COL•COA 2009), My Best Friend), he is about to take the reigns of the group as the CEO retires. Everything seems to go well for Étienne. At an ATM one day, he sees Patrick (François-Xavier Demaison, Little Nicholas, So Close (COL•COA 2009), Coluche), an old classmate with whom he had lost touch. From that point on, his private and personal life starts to fall apart.
