Solo

A womanising violinist and jewel thief (Jean-Pierre Mocky, Litan) must abandon his carefree lifestyle when he learns that his younger brother is part of the leftist revolutionary group responsible for the brutal murders of powerful men. Determined to save the life of his idealistic sibling, the cynical drifter becomes embroiled in a struggle that is not his to fight. A decade after appearing in La tête contre les murs, Jean-Pierre Mocky returned to acting with this profoundly satirical crime drama. Unflinching and heavily influenced by American cinema, Solo captures the visceral feeling of disillusionment of a post-1968 French society brimming with rage at the sinister powers that be.

"In the vast ocean of French cinema, Mocky is a unique archipelago—and within this chaotic archipelago lies a volcanic island of incandescent films, political noir imbued with a desperate romanticism. Solo is the pinnacle." - DVDClassik
