Odd Job

When the factory employing practically everyone in town suddenly closes, Jacques and all his friends find themselves penniless. While several move out, others find little jobs around town. Things are tough for Jacques. His wife left him, his debts are piling up and he can't find work to save his life. A change of pace occurs when Gardot, a local mobbed-up bookie, asks Jacques to kill his wife in exchange for clearing his massive gambling debt. Jacques has no choice but to accept. What was supposed to be a one-time deal soon becomes routine. In spite of himself, Jacques is starting to develop a taste for it, which turns out to be fortunate for Gardot, who happens to have several contracts for him.
