Nine Bullets in Paris

A terminally ill English banker has decided to spend his last few months living the low life in Paris. On his first night, a mugger tries to steal from him using a stolen police gun. After a scuffle, he finds himself in possession of the weapon and realizes that not only is his assailant’s life entirely in his hands, but also the lives of anyone he regards as unfit to live.

Twisted with the injustice of his illness, he debates whether he should allow himself to be judge, jury and executioner. After all, what has he got to lose? If he’s caught, he’ll be dead before the case goes to trial. The gun has nine bullets in the magazine. It seems a pity to waste them…
