INTO THE HEART OF CONTRABAND FRANCE | TF1 | Appels d'urgence

Contraband cigarettes, adulterated perfume, stolen cell phones or fake credit cards… we trace the contraband trails of France. Every year hundreds of millions of Euros are pocketed fraudulently by the traffickers of everyday objects. But trafficking isn’t just about money. You will see that behind every object sold on, behind every embezzlement, there is always a victim, despoiled or mugged. Over a period of several weeks we were able to follow special units from the Customs and the Police. From the port of Marseille to the secret workshops in the heart of Paris, we experience the progress of their investigations as they unravel the networks. And we discover that some traffickers are not short of imagination when selling off their wares.
