Le Premier Cercle (French pronunciation: [lə pʁəmje sɛʁkl], The First Circle), also known as Inside Ring and The Dead List in English and as Ultimate Heist on USA video, is a 2009 French-language film by Laurent Tuel.

It tells the story of Milo Malakian (Jean Reno), a gang leader in France, and his son Anton, the descendants of Armenian genocide survivors.

Having been co-produced by Thelma Films and Alter Films, this thriller formerly called Riviera was co-written by the scriptwriters Laurent Tuel, Laurent Turner and Simon Moutaïrou.[1]

Production companies include TF1 and Canal+.

According to producer Alain Terzian, the surname of the film's hero, Malakian, was chosen in regard of film director Henri Verneuil, a friend of Terzian.
