Synopsis

François, a forty-something bailiff, is about to execute his daily eviction. But fate takes an unexpected turn: as he enters the apartment, he is mistakenly taken hostage by an amateur drug dealer and his father.
Keen to resolve this situation quickly and quietly, the local deputy calls in the Special Police Force. Television crews immediately rush to the scene to make the scoop. Now under crossfire from a dozen snipers, hungry cameramen, a curious crowd, and François' exasperated wife, the three trapped men prepare their escape.
Their only option: use the neighborhood's discontentment and start a riot from the 7th floor...
