Hand in the Fire
1989, French. Directed by Jean-Daniel Cadinot.
The pine forests are ablaze, and the campers on fire. The heat of a pyromaniac seeds disorder amongst the authorities. Filmed entirely in the outskirts of Cannes. "What does your Dad do?" "He's an estate agent." "And your parent?" "She's his secretary" "And you...? " Yes, well. Him.... He's a flirt, a lover of scrubs, burning butts and sizzling cocks. A friend worthy of the god Ra, adept of Vulcan and his hammer blows. When he's around everything gets hot, and he's always being caught red-handed. A Cadinot film which is all heat and flames!
