Babetida Sadjo

Ellie Foumbi’s elegant moral thriller is a grippingly intense exploration of trauma, revenge, and forgiveness that stands as one of the most exciting feature debuts in recent memory. Babetida Sadjo delivers a bravura performance as Marie, the head chef at a retirement home in small-town France, whose day-to-day life caring for residents, hanging out with her coworker and best friend, and teasing a potential new romance is disrupted by the arrival of Father Patrick (Souleymane Sy Savane), an African priest whom she recognizes from a terrifying episode in her homeland. As Father Patrick endears himself to those around her, Marie is forced to decide how to deal with this unwelcome reminder of her troubled past.

An Icelandic single mom struggling with poverty and a Guinea-Bissauan asylum seeker facing deportation find their lives intertwined in unexpected ways.

Starring Connie Britton (Nashville, The White Lotus), Claire Hiller is relieved when her daughter Robin is revived after a fatal accident, but dread sets in when she suspects something dark has followed her daughter back from the brink of death.
