De Zaak Alzheimer

The Memory of a Killer - US poster Flemish crime thriller, De Zaak Alzheimer (The Alzheimer Case) - in which A hired killer fights against Alzheimer’s disease - was released in Belgium way back in 2003 and then spent much of 2004 being shown in Europe.

And now, in the second half of 2005, Sony Classics are about to release this fim in the US as The Memory of a Killer.

When a key civil servant is murdered, the Antwerp police force puts its top crime investigators on the case: Vincke (Koen De Bouw) and Verstuyft (Werner De Smedt). The trail leads to hitman Angelo Ledda (Jan Decleir). Showing symptoms of Alzheimer’s, Ledda finds it increasingly difficult to carry out assignments. When he realizes that he is being used in a political power game, he decides to bite the hand that feeds. Vincke and Verstuyft have a hard time trying to disentangle the web of intrigues to prevent further killings. Subsequently, the three men find themselves working together to eliminate Antwerp’s ‘underground network’.
