CANNES FEST 2024
CRITICS’ WEEK
Revolving around a Syrian exile tracking down his former torturer in France, Jonathan Millet’s film is a work of visceral intensity and formidable control.
Millet has a shrewd grasp of the codes of a paranoid-thriller, and there’ refreshing preference for intimacy and clarity over stylistic or narrative fussiness.
The movie benefits from two fantastic actors: soulful lead Adam Bessa and Tawfeek Barhom as a villain whose humanity is chilling
