Bastien (Ciryl Gane) went up against Enzo (Milan A.) in a pro MMA fight and accidentally killed the latter. He was apologetic about his actions, but Enzo's family Emma (Anne Azoulay) and Leo (Maleaume Paquin) weren't in the mood to accept his apology. Bastien hung up his boots and took up a job in a mining facility, living as far away as possible from any kind of conflict. 2 years later, at an abandoned industrial complex, the drug mafia of Manchour brothers corners and kills the network of the Andalou gang. The Machours capture Andalou himself and want to know the location of 300 Kgs of weed and 10 Kgs of Cocaine that the Andalou gang brought into the country. Under torture and threat to his family, Andalou reveals the location of the drugs inside a container at the port. Police Officer Alaoui (Alice Belaidi) says that the Manchours are making a comeback and want to take over Marseilles. This claim is contested by fellow officers Benoit and Vasseur. Alaoui gets a call from Leo, who tells her that he is in trouble. Leo tells Alaoui that the Manchours killed the Andalou gang and he saw the whole thing. If the Manchours find Leo, they would kill him. Before Alaoui can help Leo, he vanishes. One day, Emma showed up at his doorstep with a request: find Leo. Bastien realized that this was going to be one of the only ways he could make up for his act of accidentally destroying Enzo's family, and he went to Marseille, since that was where Leo went to live with his cousin, Hugo (Enzo Marzanato). Bastien finds Alaoui at Hugo's place. Hugo had been beaten up badly by the Manchours and was in the hospital. Hugo tells Alaoui about Leo's girlfriend Inaya and her sister Fatou (Maeva El Aroussi). Alaoui beats up 2 henchmen of the Manchours outside the hospital and is suspended by her boss for the lack of any evidence against them. Leo was Officer Alaoui's informant, and since she was searching for him too, she and Bastien joined hands to quicken the process, as they had to get to Leo before the Manchours (Abdel (Foued Nabba) and Driss (Ibrahima Keita Stunt)) got to him. From the get-go it was apparent that Leo was working with Andalou (Affif Ben Badra) and tipping Alaoui off about how drugs and other illegal stuff were being brought into Marseille. But then he witnessed Andalou being walked into a trap by his contact, where he was captured by the Manchours. Since Leo had witnessed all of this, including Abdel killing the Andalou's associate with his own hands, it was important to catch him so that he wouldn't inform the police that the Manchours were on the rise. Alaoui and Bastien found Fatou at a club. After fighting all the bouncers, they get to Fatou who shares that Leo and Inaya are staying at her mother's place. Alaoui and Bastein find Leo. But Alaoui's boss Canistra also reviews the CCTV footage from the pub and finds Fatou. He sends his teams to Inaya's mother's neighborhood to apprehend Leo and Alaoui. However, a mole in the police organization gives the information to Manchours, whose goons attack Leo before he can be taken to safety. Bastien defends the group, and they are saved as the police arrives just in time. Leo and his entourage are taken to the police HQ. The Manchours were incredibly active 10-15 years ago. However, after killing Alaoui's brother in a particularly violent manner, they went dormant. Alaoui's brother was a drug dealer, and he came into the notice of the Manchours who were angry with him. They burned him alive on a chair, filmed it, and sent the video to Alaoui. The Manchours had started to make their presence known for the past year, but since Alaoui was the only one who was raising an alarm about this fact, the police weren't treating it seriously, thereby allowing the Manchours to establish themselves uncontested. So, if Leo testified, after being brought to the police station, along with Alaoui and Bastien, that he had seen Abdel committing such a heinous crime, he would be stopped from becoming Marseille's uncrowned king. Hence, it was necessary to kill the lad. That said, the real reason why Leo needed to be killed was because he was the only one who knew that there was a mole in the police. When he saw Abdel kill Andalou's gang, he had also seen Abdel talking to a person in a cap, whom the Andalu referred to as the Cop. When Leo testifies in the station, Alaoui realizes that there is a mole in the police. What Leo didn't know was this mole's identity. As soon as Leo stated that there was someone among the cops working for the Manchours, an internal investigation would be initiated, and said mole would be punished. Therefore, when Leo was taken into the interrogation room by Vasseur (Virgile Bramly), Benoit (Malone Ettori), and Alaoui for questioning, Vasseur saw a window of opportunity. He killed Benoit and was about to kill Alaoui and Leo too, but Alaoui pulled out her gun and put an end to the mole. Vasseur was constantly seen calling someone whenever he learned of a new development in the case, and the movie cut right to Abdel talking to his informant in the police. When Leo brought up the topic of the mole, Alaoui looked suspiciously at Benoit as if she was aware of the trope and was expecting the betrayal to come from her best friend. So, when Vasseur pulled out the knife, everyone was taken by surprise. Right before Alaoui sent Vasseur into the afterlife, he did say something about the Manchours not giving him much of a choice. Abdel got the Andalou to talk about where he had stashed the weed and the coke by torturing his daughter. Maybe the Manchours threatened Vasseur that they'd harm his family if he didn't work for them. Even though Vasseur sounded desperate, based on Abdel's remark that he had used his connection with the Manchours to procure coke and sex workers, it's possible that he was faking it. Maybe he wasn't threatened at all, and he willingly chose to side with the Manchours. But when he realized that he was going to be punished by the police for being a mole, as well as by the Manchours for not killing Leo, he got all jumpy and erratic. Abdel and Driss Manchour, along with a handful of his gang members, descended upon the precinct that Leo was at. The Manchours had forced most of the officers to go on a wild-goose chase all across Marseille by initiating crimes in the farthest corners of the city, leaving behind Bastien, Alaoui, Leo, Chief Canistra, and a couple of other officers at the police station. They could've overwhelmed the police station with their thugs and finished off everyone in one fell swoop. However, that would've depleted their resources and led to way too many casualties on their end. On top of that, it would've foiled the Manchours' ruse that they weren't on the rise. So, instead of waging a war, they planned to make the whole thing look like a skirmish. Alaoui drove her baton through Abdel's head, meanwhile, Bastien stabbed, punched, kicked, and flung Driss around until he perished. Canistra and the other cops became martyrs. Leo was saved, and he was reunited with Emma and his girlfriend, Inaya (Nafy Souare). Alaoui's brother was mercilessly killed by Abdel for simply protesting their decision to sell drugs. For over a decade, Alaoui had had to live with that fact, unable to retaliate in any meaningful way. Even when she found out that the Manchours were back in business, she couldn't do anything because she didn't get the green light from her boss. So, that punch-up in her precinct was her only way of avenging her brother and bringing down the head of the nexus that had destroyed Marseille from within. When it comes to Bastien, he had a lot of baggage too. He had turned his body into a weapon and perfected the art of MMA fighting, but not with the intention of killing anybody. Yet, he caused Enzo's death and ruined Emma and Leo's lives. Therefore, when the Manchours came for Leo, he used his skills for a good cause. He essentially gave another chance to Leo to script his future after unintentionally leading him astray from a normal life. In the MMA cage, he fought for glory, points, medals, and trophies. He fought for himself. That said, in that precinct, probably for the first time in a long while, he chose to fight for someone else. Right before the chaos began, Bastien said that he knew that Leo would never be able to forgive him for what he had done. As soon as Alaoui asked Bastien what he intended to do next, he replied that he'd find something new to fight for.
