Saturday, October 28, 2017, 12:10 pm. Two men disembark, panicked, at the gendarmerie of Gray. Jonathann Daval, accompanied by his brother-in-law, comes to report the disappearance of his wife, Alexia. She had gone for a morning jog and had not returned. What happened to her? For 3 months, the police will carry out a relentless, exemplary investigation, as discreetly as possible, in order to gather evidence and then make the man confess, who they are convinced is not telling the whole story: Jonathann.

On October 30, 2017, the body of 29-year-old Alexia Daval was found in a wood near her home in the Gray area of Haute-Saône. The young woman was strangled to death; her body was partially charred. Two days earlier, her husband, Jonathann Daval, 32, had reported her disappearance while jogging. After three months of investigation, he confessed to be the author of the murder. This documentary retraces minute by minute the custody of Jonathann Daval. A tense, intense and uncertain camera session, told by the gendarmes themselves.
