Private eye Philip Marlowe investigates a case of blackmail involving the two wild daughters of a rich general, a pornographer and a gangster.
Shadowy corridors and cigarette smoke define this hazy, noir-soaked reconstruction of a classic detective tale. Marlowe navigates a dizzying maze of blackmail and family secrets that feel as murky as the film's heavy atmosphere.
