Tigres et Hyènes promises an immersion into the brutal world of organized crime, blending family drama and intense action, all punctuated by heartbreaking moral choices.
Just back from Spain, where he's been doing a lot of business, Malik hears on the radio that his father-in-law, Serge Lamy, has just been arrested for a robbery gone wrong. Serge, who once saved Malik's life, is accused along with several accomplices and faces prison. On the day of the trial, Iris, lawyer for Chérif, one of the wrongly accused, proposes a deal to Malik: in exchange for Serge and Chérif's freedom, Malik must take part in a dangerous heist. Haunted by guilt, Malik accepts, and forms a team with former thugs to organize one last job.
