Derrière les murs du commissariat de Boulogne-sur-Mer

Welcome to this new episode of Police Action. Today, we delve into the daily life of the central police station in Boulogne-sur-Mer, a port city where law enforcement officers face missions as diverse as they are perilous. Follow Major Franck and his team during a harrowing investigation: a woman hasn't heard from her cousin in 15 days. The intervention requires forcing entry into a door amidst palpable tension. What the officers discover inside reminds us of the harsh realities of this profession, a blend of public service and direct confrontation with death. Meanwhile, we follow Philippe, a detective on the criminal investigation unit, engaged in a race against time. A 16-year-old girl has disappeared, and the possibility of abduction hasn't been ruled out. Thanks to geolocation technology and meticulous coordination with the SNCF (French National Railway Company), you'll see how the police track a phone signal to intercept a moving train. Runaway or kidnapping? Every minute counts to bring the young girl back to her father. This documentary offers a unique perspective on the behind-the-scenes work of the National Police, far removed from stereotypes, and focusing on the human realities of a provincial town.
