A puzzlebox neo-noir, this erotic thriller from Mathieu Amalric is one where the French actor’s filmmaking is every bit as enthralling as his performance. We hand you the keys to The Blue Room, a spiral of passion, secrets & murder brilliantly adapted to the screen from Simenon’s eponymous novel.

Inspired by true events in 2011, the married warden of a Versailles prison and a female inmate set off a national firestorm when they fall in love.
