Former East <strong>German</strong>y in the early 1980s. Paul tricked Georg into<br />
handing over his girlfriend Anna to him. But the pact they made<br />
stipulated that Georg can have her back when he wishes. Years<br />
pass. Anna and Paul are successful, married, with two children.<br />
Then Georg appears – and he hasn’t forgotten the pact.<br />
Toplined by a cast consisting of some of <strong>German</strong>y’s leading screen<br />
stars, the psycho-thriller A PACT unfolds a dense web of deceit and<br />
suspense that threatens to swallow up all who come into contact<br />
with the mysterious figures at the heart of the plot. Masterminding<br />
this gritty, nail-biting thriller is director Denis Dercourt, who has<br />
been hailed as a specialist of suspense at the latest since his<br />
feature film THE PAGE TURNER, which was screened in the Un<br />
Certain Regard section at the 2006 Cannes Film Festival, just as his<br />
feature DEMAIN DÈS L’AUBE at the 2009 festival.<br />
