Almost Perfect Crimes: The Bonnot Gang

This series investigates the most notorious, infamous and terrifying crimes in French history. Cases that – in may cases – inspired films and novels. Join Danielle Thiéry, the first female chief superintendent, on a journey to the dark side of human nature.

Militant anarchist, Jules Bonnot is a true rebel. In 1911, he sets off a long-winded crime saga that will make criminal history. For the first time, a group of crooks use a motor vehicle to commit their crime. The “Bonnot Gang” leap from strength to strength, spreading death and fear wherever they go. Yet the fight against society that these men have launched is a futile affair.
