Tony is a promising superbike racer. He has devoted his entire life to his passion and his dream is finally about to come true: becoming part of a top-notch professional team. But everything unravels the day his ex-girlfriend contracts a debt with a dangerous mobster from her housing project. To save the endangered mother of his son, Tony has no other choice than to use his racing talent to do perilous drug runs on his bike for the thug.

Yann Gozlan (Aubervilliers, France, 1977) began his career in the cinema directing short films. En 2003, Pellis tells the anxiety of a dermotologist intern, facing traumatic medical phenomenon. In 2007, paranoia is the theme of Echo, where the anxious sound effects have a prominent place. Yann Gozlan directed his first feature film in 2010, Captifs, a thriller dealing with organ trafics in the Eastern Europe. His last film Un Homme Idéal is marked by a dark atmosphere that seems to be the common thread of all his films.
