Dany, the Arnault family’s teenage son, has disappeared. The case is assigned to François Visconti, a world-weary and disillusioned detective, whose wife has just left him and whose own teenage son may be involved in drug trafficking. When Mr. Bellaile, Dany’s French tutor, learns about his former student’s disappearance, he offers his services to the detective.

Adapted from the novel by Dror Mishani, Black Tide is an action-packed detective film with some of the biggest names in French cinema.
