Chasseurs de crimes

About This Movie

Chasseurs de crimes, a 2014 documentary, is quite the deep dive into the relentless pursuit of justice. Set against a backdrop of Geneva's serene landscapes, it contrasts sharply with the dark subject matter. The film follows the work of Trial, a Swiss NGO, as they chase war criminals who thought they could find refuge in Switzerland. The pacing feels deliberate, almost methodical, mirroring the slow grind of legal processes. What stands out here is the raw humanity of the victims and the unwavering commitment of these lawyers. There’s a palpable tension throughout, as they navigate legal loopholes and moral dilemmas. It’s not your typical crime documentary; it’s more about the ethical responsibilities in the aftermath of conflict, a theme that lingers long after the credits roll.
