In a world where superheroes exist, detective Moreau is teamed with new partner Schaltzmann on a case which they think is about someone who has the ability to project fire. They don't know that there is a new drug lending powers widely.
This French film is a decent police procedural set in a superhero world, with some personal subplot elements added in. The writing, acting and special effects are all very good.
The title, however (which is the same in French) is awful, giving an entirely inaccurate impression that this is light, frothy, and tongue-in-cheek. It's not - it is serious, and played straight.
