Firework maker’s murder: a crime of passion | M6 | 66 minutes

Four years ago, when the gendarmes discover the body of Jean Moritz riddled with stab wounds at Louvroil in the Nord, the case is relatively simple for them: either it was suicide or a murder committed by a professional rival. The world of fireworks is small and markets are hard to get into. For months, Laury, one of Jean Moritz’s four children, refuses to accept this version of events. For him, a case of jealousy is at the source of the killing. After much insistence, he manages to get the crime squad to reopen the investigation. And fresh evidence is now taken into account: a Facebook message from a certain Youssef T, former partner of Jean’s latest girl friend. The message is clear: beware of your relations with women… this is not a joke.” The investigation begins again, right from the start. Youssef has no alibi and his explanations are confused. Four years after the event he is jailed for the murder of the firework maker. A fresh look at an investigation by a family who wanted to know the truth.”
