Description:

Confessions tells the story of one of the most prolific hitmen of our time. With twenty-eight murders and fifteen attacks, most of them on the top brass of the Hells Angels, the mafia and organized crime, Gérald Gallant astonishes and confounds. Gallant is also a police informer and does not hesitate to sell out those around him. How did this little stuttering man with poor health and a low IQ, living with his pious and generous wife in a clean house in the heart of a quiet neighborhood, manage to outwit both the most hardened criminals and the smartest police officers? <1h 49mn>

Language:

French with English subtitles
