- Didn’t you know that you were giving poison to him?
- No, I didn’t know.

- Yes...I knew it was poison...but not as strong as that.
- No, I didn’t know.

- Yes...I knew it was poison...but not as strong as that.
Words and phrases, fragments of a trial: peasant women poisoning their men.
On the roads of Hungary a judge is haunted by his own voice.
Jacques Nolot is the wandering judge obsessed by the grip of the past.
A film noir based on a true story.
