District B13 Movie Synopsis
Paris, 2010. An isolation wall surrounds the ghetto cities. Without rules or laws, gangs reign here as absolute
masters, and he who does not die first wins a reprieve, while awaiting his turn.
Damien is a member of the police elite task force. Special intervention unit officer and expert in martial arts, he
is a past master in the field of infiltration, and well versed in successfully completing his operations through
rapid, precise and often strong-arm actions.
This time, the government has assigned him the most extreme expedition of his entire career: a weapon of mass
destruction has been stolen by the most powerful gang of District B13. Assigned to infiltrate the sector to defuse the bomb, Damien must join forces with Leïto, whose sole goal is to save his sister, who has fallen into the hands of the same gang. He is, moreover, the only one who knows District B13 like the back of his hand.
But the story is not so simple. Who exactly works for whom? Where are those who really pull the strings
hiding? And above all, who profits from the use of this bomb?
superb movie for what it was intended to 'showcase', great action; watch it JUST for that!
story is so-so, characters are hilarious whether watched in original French with English subtitles or English (dubbed). many had seen opening chase scene in youtube well before this was released awhile ago
Very good action movie. If u like action and martial arts u better see this movie..
