On the Other Side of the Tracks (French: De l'autre côté du périph) is a French comedy film released in France on 19 December 2012 and picked up for US distribution by The Weinstein Company.
On the Other Side of the Tracks is the story of two very different police officers who team up after a business mogul's wife is murdered.
The next day, the wife of a business mogul turns up nearby Ousmane's housing project.
In order to be heard by fellow police officers, Ousmane is forced to team up with visiting Parisian investigator Francois Monge, who has much more departmental clout.
Despite coming from and working in very different neighborhoods, the pair find common ground through their policing style, including manhandling suspects and kicking butt.
