Plot
An 11-year-old girl has been raped and murdered in a small community in the Pas de Calais and the man assigned to hunt for the killer is anything but your average hard bitten detective; Pharaon De Winter is a painfully shy and reclusive individual, constantly horrified by humanity's inhumanity, and emotionally ill-equipped to deal with such a vicious case. L'Humanite is an incredibly striking film, eerily haunting and with a dark lingering power.
