Carcès, in the south of France –a place you never see on postcards: deserted villages, businesses closing, bribes and arrangements are made with the law.  It is here that some friends meet to bask and reminisce in their shared memories. Something that might seem like a nostalgic pilgrimage.


But a pilgrimage that turns quickly to vengeance and killings by the gun or knife to settle old scores and no quarter is given.

An excellent story by Eric Borg that could, today, be set in most run down areas of any country. Well paced and when the violence happens it is brutal. The art and colour work by Pierre-Henry Gomont is spot on for this type of story. A lesson that sometimes reunions are not necessarily a good thing!
