L'ASSASSIN RACHETÉ — Crime Screenplay

Rémy Lassalle joined the Legion to disappear and became too useful to ever leave. Fifteen years of missions later, France sends him to the Aurès Mountains with orders to eliminate a rebel commander who has been embarrassing the army. When he sets up the shot, the face in the crosshairs is Ahmed Benaïssa, the man who dragged him out of a rice paddy in Tonkin and kept him alive for six days on rainwater and morphine. Rémy has sixty seconds to decide whether the debt he owes a medic is worth more than the country he has killed for.

A French Legionnaire turned intelligence assassin is sent into the Algerian mountains to kill an FLN commander. Through the scope he recognizes the target. It is the Viet Minh medic who saved his life in Indochina.
