Synopsis:

Antoine Minda is a cop nearing the end of his career. He has been there and got the t-shirt and has first and foremost been a bent copper. However, these small weaknesses are a thing of the past: Minda now heads ‘Bent Cops Anonymous’, a group of cops who, just like the group of alcoholics with the same name, try to support each other in order not to give in to temptation.
When Franck, a young recruit, becomes Minda’s new partner, Minda sets himself the objective of making Franck into a super cop and helping him reach the rank of superintendent. Unfortunately Franck is blinded by his passion for gambling and falls into a trap set by the Mafia-like head of a Parisian gambling ring. He tries to keep up appearances but Minda ends up discovering the truth. Keen to protect the young cop and also to give a good impression to his mother, to whose charm he is not impervious, Minda calls on the Ripoux Anonymes to get Franck out of a fix.
