The Nest (2002), also known as Nid de guêpes, is a French action/thriller movie, co-written and directed by Florent Emilio Siri. The literal translation of the French title is Wasp's Nest. The film is quasi-remake of the 1976 film, Assault on Precinct 13, which in turn was inspired by 1959's Rio Bravo.

Synopsis

It's July 14, and people are enjoying the national holiday. A group prepare what is later shown to be a warehouse robbery. Meanwhile, Laborie, a special agent in the French special forces, and an international team are escorting the leader of the Albanian mafia, Abedin Nexhepi. He is due to appear in a European court, charged with running an extensive prostitution network. Despite a considerable security presence, Nexhep's henchmen still try to intercept the armed escort. They set up an ambush, but the escort manages to escape.

Yanis Zeri dirige une petite équipe florissante spécialisée dans le braquage de fourgons blindés. Elle est composée de Nasser, en qui il a toute confiance, de Frank, ami de sa sœur Nora, et de son petit frère Amine. Yanis braque par plaisir, le butin étant recyclé dans diverses entreprises, comme le salon de coiffure de Nora. Yanis a besoin d'un artificier. Avec Nasser, il coopte Éric avec qui Nasser a sympathisé en prison. Le premier casse à 5 se passe très bien et, malgré la consommation de produits stupéfiants par Éric, le groupe est soudé dans un repas où Éric amène sa femme Audrey sur l'invitation de Yanis. Malheureusement Amine ne se sentant pas assez considéré par son frère, est avide de plus d'argent. Il revend une des armes qu'il devait détruire à des dealers de drogue de banlieue menés par Salif. Cette arme réutilisée est identifiée par les autorités, ce qui fait tomber un membre du gang des dealers. Salif menace la famille de Yanis. Pour réparer le dol, ce dernier accepte d'intercepter un go fast en provenance de Belgique. Mais Nasser y perd la vie. Salif a fait kidnapper la mère de Yanis et la femme d'Éric. La livraison de la voiture du go fast et de la drogue qu'elle contient dégénère en fusillade, forçant Yanis à investir la cité de Salif pour libérer sa mère. Les dealers sont éliminés mais la police investit les lieux. Amine se sacrifie en percutant le véhicule des forces de l'ordre pour permettre la fuite de son frère et de sa mère. Salif et l'essentiel de son gang sont définitivement éliminés. Mais Audrey a été exécutée. Yanis prépare le repli de sa famille à Casablanca, mandatant son avocat de mettre sa fortune à l'abri au Maroc et, surtout de lui fournir des informations sur le transfèrement d'Amine au palais de justice. Khadidja, la mère, Nora la sœur, ainsi que le jeune fils d'Éric sont envoyés au Maroc. Yanis et Éric font libérer Amine en percutant le fourgon. Mais quand ils veulent s'enfuir dans leur automobile une fusillade s'engage avec les policiers. Yanis couvre la fuite d'Amine et d'Éric qui peuvent embarquer dans ce bus duquel ils voient en fin de compte Yanis sortir calmement du parking. Mais il est abattu par un très jeune policier. Le film s'achève par l'arrivée au Maroc des fugitifs survivants à bord d'un bateau de pêche.

The film is set in 1959 during the Algerian War. Lieutenant Terrien (Benoît Magimel), an inexperienced and naïve junior French Army officer, has volunteered for active service, rather than a safe staff post in Algiers. He is posted to Kabylie, a remote and mountainous region of Algeria, as a replacement for Lieutenant Constantin (Hicham Hlimi) who was killed during a ‘friendly fire’ incident commanding a counter-insurgency ambush operation – i.e. he was accidentally killed by his own side during a confused fire-fight. The war in Algeria is much more complicated than Lieutenant Terrien anticipated as he takes over command of his new platoon at the outpost "Mazel". Within hours of taking over his new command Terrien is ordered to lead a ‘locate and destroy’ mission into the zone interdite (the 'Forbidden Zone') to find a World War II French Army veteran named Slimane, now a local commander of Algerian rebels trying to win the independence of their homeland. Slimane is never seen in person during the film.

Johnny Utah is a former Ohio State Buckeyes quarterback and rookie FBI Agent. He is assigned to assist experienced agent and veteran, Angelo Pappas, in investigating a string of bank robberies by the "Ex-Presidents"; a gang of robbers that wear face-masks depicting former US presidents Ronald Reagan, Richard Nixon, Lyndon B. Johnson, and Jimmy Carter to disguise their true identities. They only raid the cash drawers in the banks that they rob—never going for the vault—and are out within 90 seconds. Pursuing Pappas' theory that the criminals are surfers, Utah goes undercover to infiltrate the surfing community. He concocts a story to persuade orphaned surfer Tyler Endicott to teach him to surf, she having saved him from drowning. Through her he meets Bodhi, the charismatic leader of a gang of surfers comprising Roach, Grommet, and Nathaniel. The group are initially wary of Utah, but accept him when Bodhi recognizes him as the former college football star. As he masters the art of surfing, Utah finds himself increasingly drawn to the surfers' adrenaline-charged lifestyle, Bodhi's philosophies, and Tyler. Following a clue retrieved by analyzing toxins found in the hair of one of the bank robbers, Utah and Pappas lead an FBI raid on another gang of surfers. Despite their criminal records, these surfers turn out to not be the Ex-Presidents and the raid inadvertently ruins a DEA undercover operation.
