Poison

Paul Braconnier and his wife Blandine are locked in a mutual desire to murder each other without consequence. Inspired by a radio program, Paul travels to Paris to meet a renowned lawyer who specializes in acquittals for murderers. He tells the lawyer he has killed his wife, and the lawyer asks him to reconstruct the circumstances of the crime. Unwittingly, the lawyer reveals how Paul could commit the murder while maximizing his chances of avoiding the death penalty or even being released.
