![The Memory of a Killer [DVD] NEW NOT SEALED - Picture 1 of 1](https://i.ebayimg.com/images/g/eJEAAMXQjwVQ9P~K/s-l500.jpg)
Fortunately, I'm fluent in Dutch, so the subtitles were not a problem; however, not everything was translated 100% 'spot on' into English....but the overall meaning is the same. Synopsis: This is a story about a young lead detective, Chief Inspector Vincke (played by Koen Du Bouw), and his (cop .vs bad guy) relationship with an aging veteran hitman Angelo Ledda (played by Jan De Cleir) whose memory is impaired by Alzheimer's. Ledda was initially hired by a head government official to assassinate a twelve year-old girl who was forced into prostitution by her own father. The official deemed the young girl a liability because his adult son was in fact one of her clients and that relationship was deemed detrimental to both of their governmental careers. Once he realized that his intended target was in fact a twelve year-old child, Ledda refuses to 'carry-out the contract'. Ledda is appalled to learn that his proposed client (the head official) has 'the hit' carried-out by another. Ledda vows vengeance upon those involved in the girl's murder. Chief Inspector Vincke and his team eventually become aware (with Ledda's help) that the girl's death is part of a huge cover-up linked to some of the most powerful men in Belgium. With the detectives closing-in and with his memory fading quickly..."Ledda finds himself in a race against time as he tries to avenge a child whose face he can no longer recall." Note: This movie does contain some nudity. Also, for those of you who enjoy playing their DVDs through a surround sound entertainment system, the subwoofer let's you know it's there during each one of Ledda's (green tinted screen) flashbacks.Read full review
