Coup de Grâce is a film about the collapse of a friendship, about what is broken and what cannot break. After a long separation two men meet again in a massive building at a remote location. In the course of the evening and an icy night, they fight a weaponless, exhausting duel.

It tells of how feelings of revenge can never be transformed into resignation in spite of the passing of time. How the lust for life burns, smolders, rekindles and then slowly dies. This duel ends with neither winner nor loser.
