Summary

"Corpus delicti": object that materially proves the existence of a criminal offense, a crime. Filmmaker Léolo reverses the perspective and asks in this docufiction what society does with the bodies of those who break the rules and resist power. The film successively gives a voice to the mutilated victims of police brutality and to a young fictional gay activist, carried by both his love and his devotion, but crushed by the legal system and prison. The film asks essential and necessary questions about the difficult intersection of art and politics, expression and action, justice and violence.
