An Assassin Passes By

5.919811h 50mMovieDrama

The story of a serial killer but bears little resemblance to a slasher movie. We know almost at once who the killer is and the emphasis is not on the murders but on his psychology as he falls in love with one of his prospective victims - a weakness which, of course, will be his downfall.

DirectorMichel Vianey
WriterMichel Vianey
ProducersDaniel Messère·Yves Gasser
