Paul is taking his family to their holiday on the Riviera when he gets into a game of chicken on the freeway with three aggressive motorcyclists. After he crashes the car, the motorcylists beat him and murder his wife and daughter. He becomes a suspect because there are no witnesses and he isn't certain about identification from the police lineup. Consequently, he takes the law into his own hands. He pursues the murderers with the help of his sister-in-law, who is excited out of her boredom by Paul's unleashing of his own agression. With every aggressive act, the situation spirals further and further out of control
