The scary story of Two drops of water

Presented at the La Rochelle TV Fiction Festival, Two drops of water was also distinguished by its very well put staging. Thanks to his talent for correctly establishing permanent anxiety, the director Nicolas Cuche succeeded in installing a ghostly camera in which the suspects misled the police. And if this story may seem far-fetched, Jacques Expert does not leave it out of his imagination. Indeed, the author of the book was inspired of a news item across the Atlantic in which the twinning has really disturbed the scientific police. It was a brawl between rival gangs in the United States. A scenario that is cold in the back!
