Review 4K Movie

The year is 1995. The story tells how the citizens of Belgium are shocked by the kidnapping of two girls, which is taken on by a young gendarme named Paul.

The young man tries to get to the bottom of the truth by any means necessary, even if it means breaking the law.

The film is based on a true story in which a serial killer kidnapped a total of 15 underage girls, recording his perversions on videotapes for sale. The director decided to introduce the character of young gendarme Paul into the plot, giving him a tragic storyline.

The result is not so much about the maniac and his illegal scheme as it is about a man trying to get to the bottom of the truth and find the culprits. Therefore, the focus is on describing in detail all the events surrounding Paul, his life, his passion for investigation, and his sense of justice. It is through the prism of this young man that the inadequacy of the police system, the judicial system, corruption, and the literal impunity of criminals are shown.

As a result, the film is slow-paced and viscous, so it is suitable for those who are comfortable with a measured narrative tempo. The Maldoror Case is definitely about honest cops and their powerlessness in the face of a rotten law enforcement system, and about faith in decent people.
