Cafard
In August 1914, Jean Mordant is in Buenos Aires, securing the title of World Wrestling Champion, when tragedy strikes back home in Ostend—his daughter Mimi is assaulted by German forces. Determined to seek justice for this heinous act, Jean vows revenge. Accompanied by his coach Victor and his young nephew Guido, he joins the elite Armored Car Division (ACM). However, their bulky armored vehicles frequently become mired in the muddy terrain of Flanders. Consequently, the unit is swiftly redeployed to the Eastern front. Jean is overwhelmed with despair upon discovering that Mimi is now pregnant. Despite the harsh realities of war, Jean and his companions embark on a harrowing journey that will eventually take them across the globe.
