A dozen elegant people are gathered in a writer's desirable mansion. In the grand tradition of Agatha Christie, they all have something to hide.They begin a cruel game of truth, a game where you're not supposed to tell lies. As the questions become more and more intimate and precise, the tempers rise, while outside the storm is raging. Enter a hateful person (played by Paul Meurisse, the nasty headmaster in "Les Diaboliques") who seems to know a lot about them. Someone is murdered. Whodunit?

🎬 MovieFinder's Take

Director Robert Vernay constructs a classic whodunit puzzle, relying on a confined setting, a limited pool of suspects, and the atmospheric tension of an approaching storm. The film explores psychological pressure, making both characters and viewers question every revelation.

What lingers after the final reveal is the satisfaction of a cleverly plotted mystery, where social graces crumble to expose hidden motives. A solid entry for fans of chamber-piece thrillers. — MovieFinder Editorial

Director: Robert Hossein
