The best Yves Elliot’s crime movies

Shopkeeper Victor Garnier has naively invested his family's life savings in an African mine, on his banker's recommendation.

Even for professionals such an enterprise -he decides to dig a tunnel- is quite demanding, but for simple commoners it's daunting, as they also have their personal downsides; thus Victor's wife has a most unwelcome tendency to blurt out the truth, even to the grumpy local copper: a crazy risk when you need to keep a criminal plan secret.
