In the film The Memory of a Killer (also known as The Alzheimer Case), the connection between the main characters, Angelo Ledda (the hitman) and Eric Vincke (the detective), is primarily professional and circumstantial.
Angelo Ledda is a seasoned contract killer experiencing the early stages of Alzheimer's disease. He is hired to carry out a series of assassinations.
Eric Vincke is the lead detective assigned to investigate the murders.
Their connection starts when Vincke begins to investigate the crimes that Ledda committed. As Vincke gets closer to unveiling the criminal operation, he eventually crosses paths with Ledda. They have a few direct confrontations throughout the film as Vincke tries to bring Ledda to justice, and Ledda seeks a form of redemption by turning against those who hired him. They do not know each other from prior to this case.
The film features a duo of lead detectives, Eric Vincke and Freddy Verstuyft. They are long-time partners and the 'main characters' of the franchise. The AI summary only addresses the relationship between the hitman and one detective.
The characters are linked thematically: Ledda was a victim of child abuse, and Vincke is investigating a child prostitution ring. This shared 'connection' to the subject matter is what drives Ledda to trust Vincke.
The summary frames the relationship as a standard pursuit, but the core of the second half of the film is Ledda actively assisting Vincke to bypass legal hurdles and expose high-level corruption.
In the 2003 film The Memory of a Killer (De Zaak Alzheimer), the main characters' relationships are as follows:
Angelo Ledda and Eric Vincke: They do not know each other prior to the events of the film. Their connection is purely professional and circumstantial, beginning when Vincke investigates a murder committed by Ledda. However, as Ledda's Alzheimer's progresses and he discovers his employers are involved in child prostitution, he begins to leave clues for Vincke, forming a reluctant collaboration to expose the corruption.
Eric Vincke and Freddy Verstuyft: These two are the lead detectives and are long-time partners in the Antwerp police force. They have a deep professional and personal bond, having worked together on numerous cases (as established in the book series the film is based on).
Angelo Ledda and the Antagonists: Ledda has no personal history with the Baron or the middlemen who hired him; he was contracted as an international hitman for a specific job.
